abstract = {This paper presents the results from one of the first
observations of ionospheric scintillation taken using the
Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR). The observation was of the
strong natural radio source Cassiopeia A, taken overnight on
18–19 August 2013, and exhibited moderately strong
scattering effects in dynamic spectra of intensity received
across an observing bandwidth of 10–80 MHz. Delay-Doppler
spectra (the 2-D FFT of the dynamic spectrum) from the first
hour of observation showed two discrete parabolic arcs, one
with a steep curvature and the other shallow, which can be
used to provide estimates of the distance to, and velocity
of, the scattering plasma. A cross-correlation analysis of
data received by the dense array of stations in the LOFAR
“core” reveals two different velocities in the
scintillation pattern: a primary velocity of ~20–40
ms$^{−1}$ with a north-west to south-east direction,
associated with the steep parabolic arc and a scattering
altitude in the F-region or higher, and a secondary velocity
of ~110 ms$^{−1}$ with a north-east to south-west
direction, associated with the shallow arc and a scattering
altitude in the D-region. Geomagnetic activity was low in
the mid-latitudes at the time, but a weak sub-storm at high
latitudes reached its peak at the start of the observation.
An analysis of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)
and ionosonde data from the time reveals a larger-scale
travelling ionospheric disturbance (TID), possibly the
result of the high-latitude activity, travelling in the
north-west to south-east direction, and, simultaneously, a
smaller-scale TID travelling in a north-east to south-west
direction, which could be associated with atmospheric
gravity wave activity. The LOFAR observation shows
scattering from both TIDs, at different altitudes and
propagating in different directions. To the best of our
knowledge this is the first time that such a phenomenon has
been reported.},
