Description
Summary:This report describes in detail the theory of electron energy deposition used in the ARCTIC auroral code. New results describing the effects of radial electron diffusion both with and without a magnetic field are presented. Detailed comparisons are made between the ARCTIC theory, data, and the results of a Monte Carlo calculation performed to check the accuracy of the theory. Some comparisons between the ARCTIC approach to the electron energy deposition problem and several other deposition methods are discussed. Report on High Altitude Effects Simulation Program.
