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.

Response of the mid-latitude atmosphere to sporadic cosmic ray variations in the western Siberian region
The article presents the results of long-term observations of cosmic ray variations and changes in atmospheric parameters at midlatitudes in the Novosibirsk Region. The atmospheric response to Forbush decreases in galact...
Microwave diagnostics of flare plasma by the direct fitting method based on data from the Siberian Radioheliograph
In this paper, we analyze images and the frequency spectrum of microwave emission in the maximum of brightness distribution in the January 20, 2022 and July 16, 2023 flares recorded by the Siberian Radioheliograph in the...
ALFVÉN WAVES IN THE MAGNETOSPHERE GENERATED BY SHOCK WAVE/PLASMAPAUSE INTERACTION
We study Alfvén waves generated in the magnetosphere during the passage of an interplanetary shock wave. After shock wave passage, the oscillations with typical Alfvén wave dispersion have been detected in spacecraft obs...
AMPLITUDE VARIATIONS OF THE REFLECTED SIGNAL DURING VERTICAL SOUNDING OF THE IONOSPHERE AT MIDDLE LATITUDES
In this paper, we discuss the main types of quasiperiodic variations in amplitudes of a reflected signal during vertical sounding of the ionosphere at middle latitudes. The initial experimental data is vertical sounding...
OFFSETS IN THE GEOMAGNETIC INDICES OF THE MAGNETOSPHERIC RING CURRENT
The paper considers changes in the daily average values of the Dst, SYM-H, ASY-H, and ASY-D indices and their dependence on the level of magnetic disturbance for the period 1981–2016. These indices are geomagnetic charac...
