We present the results of the active space experiment with charged particle beam's injection (electrons and xenon ions) carried out onboard Intercosmos-25 station and daughter Magion-3 subsatellite. The ones are obtained under conditions when the particle beams were injected in opposite directions relative to the magnetic field B0 in such a way that the electron injection was directed towards the Earth. Mechanisms of beam-plasma instabilities relative to the excitation of electrostatic and electromagnetic waves are considered during the electron beam injection (~10 keV, 0.1 A) from the Intercosmos-25 station. Development of transverse instability on the first cyclotron resonance leads to the excitation of whistler mode waves backward-propagating relative to the injected electrons (from the Earth).The investigation object was the beam-excited differential fluxes of ionospheric electrons in a wide energetic range of 27 eV — 412 keV registered by the charged particle spectrometers onboard the Magion-3 subsatellite. Thereby, the interaction of whistler waves with ionospheric electron fluxes is stimulated by the energy transfer mechanisms such as 'particle-wave-particle'. Numerical results of beam-plasma instabilities are compared also with thermal plasma parameters registered at different space points on the station and subsatellite. Excitation of longitudinal and transverse beam-plasma instabilities will inevitably lead to their competition, which will affect the results of the experiment.The data of stimulated fluxes of ionospheric electrons allow us to investigate the various effects of the wave-particle interaction, taking into account the influence of the growth rate of longitudinal instability on the excitation angle of whistlers and their structure. This approach is based on the results of laboratory experiments to determine the pattern of excited whistlers for an electric dipole antenna and the analogy of the beam-plasma channel with the radiating system. The results of the active space experiment confirm the dependence of the growth rate of whistler mode waves on the development of longitudinal beam instability.
