Abstract

Abstract

The paper discusses the lower-hybrid-drift instability in magnetopause from the simplified Lee-Kan distribution function. The results are compared with those obtained by the drift Maxwell distribution function. The saturated amplitude of the electric field perturbation is evaluated by current relaxation. It is consistent with the data observed-5mV/m.
