内容記述 | Data acquired in the free solar wind by the ISEE 1 and ISEE 2 propagation experiment were used to obtain the power spectra of fluctuations in electron density; a maximum-entropy technique has made it possible to exploit fully the intrinsic precision of the in situ measurements. The results have led to a new determination of the anisotropy of density fluctuations in the solar wind, which is in conflict with certain expectations based on the propagation of Langmuir waves, but is in agreement with multistation interplanetary-scintillation measurements: it could well be that Langmuir wave growth rates during type III solar bursts are much larger than has been inferred from the electron distribution function, whose measurement involves averaging over relatively long time intervals. The relation between the fluctuation level and the mean density is studied, and tentative evidence for a correlation between the relative fluctuation level and proton temperature is presented. |
