Abstract

We present a theoretical investigation of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) of whistler waves in low-density collisionless plasmas in the presence of negative ions and incorporating the effect of the ponderomotive force on electrons. It is found that the growth rate of the excited ion quasi-mode decreases with increasing concentration of negative ions. The effect of negative ions on the SBS of the whistler waves during the ionospheric modification is discussed.
