| 内容記述 | The appearance of metal ions at altitudes near 100 km has long been known. The interest in metal ions arises from the contributions they can make towards understanding atmospheric dynamics. A description is presented of the results of a theoretical investigation of Mg(+) using an ionospheric model which incorporates realistic geomagnetic and electric fields. In particular, longitudinal effects can be included. The data base for comparison is the altitude profiles and latitude-local time cross sections of Mg(+) densities at fixed altitudes from the Visual Airglow Experiment on Atmospheric Explorer 'E' (AE-E), which was in equatorial orbit. Mg(+) number densities were found as functions of dip latitude, altitude, and local time in three longitudinal regions. |
