OGO-5 measurements of the Lyman-alpha sky background in 1970 and 1971

The results of measurements of the Lyman-alpha sky background emission at 1216 A, made by two different UV photometers during the last three 'spin-up' maneuvers (enabling more than 50% of the sky to be observed) are examined. The processed data revealed a smooth variation of Lyman-alpha brightness from a broad maximum near RA = 269 deg, declination = -20 deg to a broader minimum near RA = 50 deg, declination = +20 deg. The maximum/minimum intensity ratio is found to be on the order of 4.

General information concerning the low-frequency radiometer, instrument package launching and operation, and scientific objectives of the flight are provided. Calibration curves and correction factors, with general and detailed information on the preflight calibration procedure are included. The data acquisition methods and the format of the data reduction, both on 35 mm film and on incremental computer plots, are described.

OGO 5 observations of Pc 5 waves - Particle flux modulations

An investigation is conducted concerning the modulations of particle fluxes associated with Pc 5 waves in the region beyond the plasmapause. A study of thermal flux modulations indicates that some of the density enhancements observed are not spatial structures but are spurious features caused by temporal flux variations associated with hydromagnetic waves. A resonance model of the energetic particle flux modulations is discussed. Energetic particle modulations are also considered. The reported observations reveal that modulations are dominant at energies of about 100 keV for electrons and at 100 keV to 1 MeV for protons. This may indicate that the bounce resonance interaction is not important for Pc 5 waves.
