Plasmasphere and magnetosphere structure from ISEE-1 and DE-1
Abstract
The density structure of the plasmapause was investigated using the two satellites ISEE-1 and DE-2 to obtain complementary radial and latitudinal profiles. Data from the plasma wave receivers were to be used to obtain the total electron density, and from the ion mass spectrometers to determine thermal plasma morphology. Electron density profiles were obtained for 25 sets of orbits when the satellites were adjacent.
