Model computations of Schumann resonance on Titan

We model the global electromagnetic (Schumann) resonance in the atmosphere of Titan. Parameters of conductivity of the lower ionosphere were implemented taken from existing aeronomic models of Titanʹs atmosphere. Two exponential conductivity profiles were constructed: one of them suggests favorable conditions for Schumann resonance and the other models considerable attenuation in the ionospheric plasma. Peak frequencies and Q-factors of resonance were computed as well as resonance spectra for the signals arriving from individual vertical lightning discharges and from strokes uniformly distributed over the planet. The models show that detection of Schumann resonance on Titan is feasible, especially in favorable conditions. Possible applications of Schumann resonance in the studies of Titanʹs lightning activity are outlined.
