Statistical properties of internal modulation in pulsating aurora

Abstract. We statistically investigated the occurrence characteristics of internal modulation (IM), a rapid intensity modulation of a few hertz embedded in pulsating aurora (PsA), using high-speed ground-based optical data obtained with qCMOS cameras. For datasets acquired at Kir...

Estimation of auroral emission altitude in the region of the ISS magnetic footprint during a relativistic electron precipitation event observed by ISS-CALET

We report a multi-MeV relativistic electron precipitation (REP) event as observed by the CALorimetric Electron Telescope and the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image aboard the International Space Station, together with low-cost twin all-sky auroral imagers installed at Athabasca, Cana...

Comparative Analysis of Ion and Electron Contributions to Ionospheric Ionization at Auroral and Subauroral Latitudes

Abstract Electron and proton precipitation into the nightside ionosphere is a key process in magnetosphere–ionosphere coupling. Although auroral electron precipitation at –10 keV is traditionally considered the main driver of auroral emissions, recent studies show that keV electr...
