Spatial features of mid-latitude field-line resonances from simultaneous ground-satellite measurements
Three series of simultaneous pulsation measurements ( <i>f</i><0.06 Hz) on the Freja satellite and at the Budkov Observatory have been spectrally processed (FFT) in 6-min intervals of Freja's transits near the local Budkov field line. Doppler-shifted, weighted spectral-pe...

description | Three series of simultaneous pulsation
measurements ( <i>f</i><0.06 Hz) on the Freja satellite and at the Budkov
Observatory have been spectrally processed (FFT) in 6-min intervals of Freja's
transits near the local Budkov field line. Doppler-shifted, weighted
spectral-peak frequencies, determined in both transverse magnetic components in
the mean field-aligned coordinate system on Freja, allowed the estimation, by
comparison with the stable frequency at Budkov, of fundamental frequencies of
the local magnetic-field-line resonance ranged from 13 to 17 mHz in two
pulsation events analyzed, with <i>K<sub>p</sub></i>=2<sub>+</sub> to 0<sub>+</sub>.
The ratio of total amplitudes of the spectral-pulsation components on the ground
and on Freja at an altitude of ~1700 km (values <0.7) characterizes the
transmissivity of the ionosphere. In the Pc3 frequency range this correlates
well with simulation computations using models of the ionosphere under low solar
activity. |
