Abstract

Data from the Freja satellite experiment on the lower hybrid turbulence in the Earth’s magnetosphere are analyzed. It is shown that the observed threshold energy density of lower hybrid waves required for the excitation of localized wave packets is in good agreement with theoretical predictions.
