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.

DIAMAGNETIC STRUCTURES AS A BASIS OF QUASI-STATIONARY SLOW SOLAR WIND
The results presented in this review reflect the fundamentals of the modern understanding of the nature of the structure of the slow solar wind (SW) along the entire length from the Sun to the Earth's orbit. It is known...
LONG-LIVED METEOR TRAILS
The paper presents data on long-lived (~20–40 min) meteor trails. We describe a group of soliton-type meteor trails expanding at transonic speeds. Radio sounding data evidences that the latter include ~7–8 min ionization...
CALIBRATION OF SIBERIAN RADIOHELIOGRAPH IMAGES
We discuss the method for automatic calibration of solar radio images derived from the first stage of the multiwave Siberian Radioheliograph (SRH-48). SRH is a 48-element T-shaped radiointerferometer in the 4–8 GHz frequ...
THE CURRENT STATE OF THE THEORY OF PC1 RANGE ULF PULSATIONS IN MAGNETOSPHERIC PLASMA WITH HEAVY IONS: A REVIEW
The review considers the current state of the theory of short-period ULF waves in plasma with admixture of heavy ions (ions whose mass significantly exceeds the mass of protons). The presence of heavy ions influences the...
PROBLEMS OF THE PC1 MAGNETOSPHERIC WAVE THEORY. A REVIEW
The Pc1 ultralow-frequency electromagnetic waves (frequency range 0.2–5 Hz), also known as pearl necklace, are a unique phenomenon in near-Earth space physics. Many properties of pearls remain a mystery, despite the rese...
