Energy exchange rate for the equatorial electrojet: Test of the model of two‐stream processes that includes thermal corrections
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The experiment of Balsley and Farley (1971) in Jicamarca, Peru has been the only multi(3)‐frequency investigation of the equatorial electrojet. The radar was operated sequentially at frequencies of 16.25, 49.92 and 146.25 MHz and probed the same ionospheric volume. The most prominent feature of these observations was the increase in the phase velocity Vph of Farley‐Buneman (FB) waves with increasing radar frequency while the classical fluid theory gives Vph independent on their wavelength and the simple kinetic theory accounts for only a small increase in Vph. Our recent theory predicts a wavenumber dependence of the FB wave phase velocity. The rate of increase depends on the altitude of the electrojet and seems to match the observed wave behavior. The most important byproduct of this case study is our conclusion that the energy exchange rate in inelastic electron‐neutral interactions is about two‐to‐three times higher that it has been assumed in estimates.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
