STATISTICAL PROPERTIES OF AURORAL KILOMETER RADIATION: BASED ON ERG (ARASE) SATELLITE DATA
Journal Title: Solar-Terrestrial Physics - Year 2021, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
In this work, we have studied the signals of auroral kilometer radiation (AKR) from sources in the auroral regions of the Northern and Southern hemispheres simultaneously recorded by one satellite. We have carried out a detailed statistical analysis of more than 20 months of continuous AKR measurements made by the ERG satellite (also known as Arase). This made it possible to confirm the previously obtained results on the location of AKR sources and seasonal changes in the radiation intensity. Open questions about the processes in the AKR source can be solved using data on the radiation pattern under various geomagnetic conditions. To answer these questions, we have estimated the cone angle of directional diagrams in the dusk and dawn sectors of Earth’s magnetosphere.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GEOMAGNETIC STORM DEVELOPMENT AND THE SOLAR WIND PARAMETER ß
We have analyzed the dynamics of solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) parameters during the development of 933 isolated geomagnetic storms, observed over the period from 1964 to 2010. The analysis was carri...
ASTROCLIMATIC STATISTICS AT THE SAYAN SOLAR OBSERVATORY
The paper analyzes meteorological and optical characteristics of the atmosphere at the Sayan Solar Observatory (SSO) and the future 3 m Large Solar Telescope (LST-3). We examine spatial features of changes in astroclimat...
DAYTIME ELECTRON DENSITY AT IONOSPHERIC F1-LAYER HEIGHTS DURING GEOMAGNETIC STORMS (IRKUTSK)
We have examined variations in electron density Ne at ionospheric F1-layer heights during geomagnetic storms at the Irkutsk ionospheric station (52° N, 104° E). We have selected geomagnetic storms of varying intensity as...
STUDYING 630 NM ATOMIC OXYGEN EMISSION SOURCES DURING STRONG MAGNETIC STORMS IN THE NIGHT MID-LATITUDE IONOSPHERE
We analyze significant increases in 630 nm atomic oxygen night emissions during very strong geomagnetic storms, using optical measurements, theoretical modeling, and magnetogram inversion technique (MIT) data. It is show...
ROLE OF ALPHA PARTICLES IN PENETRATION OF SOLAR WIND DIAMAGNETIC STRUCTURES INTO THE MAGNETOSPHERE
We present the results of studies showing the presence of simultaneous jumps in the density of protons (N2/N1)p and alpha particles (N2/N1)α at the boundaries of diamagnetic structures (DS) of various types both in the q...
