摘要: Results are reported from the ECHO-6 electron-beam-injection experiment, performed in auroral-zone ionosphere on March 30, 1983 using a sounding rocket equipped with two electron guns and free-flying plasma-diagnostics instrument package. The data presented extensive graphs diagrams characterized detail. Large ELF wave variations, superposed strong beam-sector-directed quasi-dc component, observed 100-eV beam-induced plasma when beam is injected transverse spiral, but not it upward parallel to magnetic-field line. activity found be suppressed whenever passed through field lines auroral activity, suggesting that waves produced by interaction of potentials, currents, return currents neutralizing accelerator payload.
