| 内容記述 | An attempt to establish the precipitation signal of an auroral arc based on data gathered by sounding rockets and satellites is presented. Rocket sounding is useful for altitudes up to a few thousand km, the S3-3 satellite from 4000-8000 km, and satellites in GEO for the equatorial plane. Inverted V structures have been observed down to a few km in width by rockets, and occur on open as well as closed field lines. Observations of bursts of field-aligned electrons, simultaneous ion and electron precipitation, counter-streaming electrons and conics have been interpreted as indicating ac phenomena. The S3-3 has recorded the presence of upward flowing ions, beams, and conics, downward flowing ions, and counter-streaming electrons in the 4000-8000 km region. Finally, plasma injections at synchronous orbit have been identified as the equatorial plane signature of any auroral substorm. |
