During the propagation of a tsunami, gravity and sound waves can be produced, spreading from its source to the ionosphere's upper layers, thus generating perturbed electron densities in its E and F regions. These ionospheric disturbances…

Radio interferometers, which are designed to observe astrophysical objects in the universe, can also be used to study the Earth's ionosphere. Radio interferometers like the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) detect variations in…

Solar flare emission at X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) energies can cause substantial enhancements in the electron density in the Earth's lower ionosphere. It is now become clear that flares exhibit quasi-periodic pulsations with…

The ionosphere affects radio signals by altering their speed, direction, and trajectory, causing a temporary delay known as ionospheric delay, which is directly related to the total electron content (TEC). Although research in other…

The Galactic magnetic field is an integral constituent of the interstellar medium (ISM), and knowledge of its structure is crucial to understanding Galactic dynamics. The Rotation Measures (RM) of extragalactic (EG) sources have been the…

The stability of GPS time and frequency transfer is limited by the fact that GPS signals travel through the ionosphere. In high precision geodetic time transfer (i.e. based on precise modeling of code and carrier phase GPS data), the…

We introduce a new cross-correlation method to detect and verify the astrophysical origin of Faraday Rotation (FR) in multiwavelength surveys. FR is well studied in radio astronomy from radio point sources but the $\lambda^{2}$ suppression…
