Disturbance in the Ionosphere and Radiation Blackout Due to Coronal Mass Ejections

Abstract

We have investigated the effect of coronal mass ejections on the ion density of ionosphere, which have in turn the effect on the high frequency radio waves transmitted from the earth’s surface. Although the low frequency radio waves are widely for the communication but there high frequency are equally responsible for long range communication. We have seen the effects of high intense coronal mass ejections from 2022 to 2024 on the disruption of ion concentration in the ionosphere. The severe radiation blackout on May 2024 was also been analyzed by looking into the changes in ion densities during day time and night time.
