change qualitatively in a broad range of ionospheric and magnetospheric pa-
rameters at the transition from I = π/ 2 to arbitrary magnetic inclinations. In
order to clarify the validity of that statement, we rewrite (7.99) and (7.100),
introducing parameter X K :

X K = X

Then

where

Equation (7.99) for the reflection coecients matrix can be then easily
written as

A little later we shall show that, except of some exotic and practically
uninteresting cases, dependency of A on the wa ven umber k is insignificant

the results of calculating for R with a vertical B 0 to be transferred to an
arbitrary inclination of B 0 . It is necessary that we only replace Y by Y/ sin I
and X by X K .
