DIRECT OBSERVATIONS OF LOW-ENERGY ELECTRONS IN THE DISTURBED IONOSPHERIC E-REGION

Differential spectra of electrons 20-3,000 eV in energy have been directly measured in the ionosphere for the first time. The spectrometer used an open electron multiplier as its detector, counting individual electrons. It was carried in Black Brant II rockets launched in 1963 at Churchill, Manitoba...
