| Summary: | An analysis of aurora distribution in the northern and southern hemispheres has been made according to results of photo-observations for aurorae. The auroral zone is of an oval form, approaching the geomagnetic pole ( $ N 78') at day hours and withdrawing from the pole (6 N 68') at night hours. The location of auroral zones in the northern and southern hemispheres at day and night hours are given. 1. The form of auroral zone at a definite moment of time (universal time) |
