High power radar (radio waves) interaction with the                        ionosphere produces a number of observable heating processes.                   These may be characterized as instabilities and spread F, plasma                line overshoot and generation of extrathermal electrons.  This                  work will combine a theoretical model with specific experimental                tests to explain the physical mechanisms involved in these types                of ionospheric perturbations.
