The Morphology of Equatorial Plasma Bubbles – a review [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015 Plasma bubbles that occur in the equatorial F-region make up one of the most distinguishing phenomena in the ionosphere. Bubbles represent plasma depletions with respect to the background ionosphere, and are the major source of electron density ...

Observations of pressure anisotropy effects within semi-collisional magnetized plasma bubbles [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 Magnetic fields can be reorganized by plasma flows and lead to effects such as magnetic reconnection. Here the authors explore the evolution of magnetized-plasma bubbles in a semi-collisional regime and the role of pressure anisotropy in influencing the ...

Semimonthly oscillation observed in the start times of equatorial plasma bubbles [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2020 Using airglow data from an all-sky imager deployed at São João do Cariri (7.4∘ S, 36.5∘ W), the start times of equatorial plasma bubbles was studied in order to investigate the day-to-day variability of this phenomenon.
