Start of equatorial bubbles with the help of E region modification

The results of numerical experiments on simulating the process of ionospheric bubbles initiation using artificially created regions of elevated conductivity of nonilluminated E layer are given. On the basis of the given method the conclusion is made about the possibility of triggering the bubbles. Regularities of development of stimulated bubbles are studied depending on the characteristics of E layer modification: the dimensions of the zones, the elevated conductivity level, the lifetime of the elevated conductivity regions
