摘要: We present a detailed analysis of the Pioneer 9 VLF electric field observations for 20 selected storm periods covering heliocentric range extending from 0.754 AU to 0.99 AU. Although data only two low frequency channels are available, results study tend confirm preliminary speculation by Scarf and Siscoe (1971) that turbulentE-field spectrum in disturbed solar wind has significant radial gradient.
