MEASUREMENT OF POLARIZATION, INCIDENT ANGLE AND DIRECTION OF VLF EMISSIONS-(1)

1968-03-20 Since 1967, at Showa Base (geomag. lat. 69°S) in the Antarctic, the polarization, incident angle and arriving direction of the VLF emissions in 5, 12 and 25 KHz bands, have been studied by means of two crossed loops and a vertical antenna, through the analysis of the Lissajous' figur...

The sense of rotation of the polarization plane in 750 Hz, 12 and 25 KHz bands, has been studied by means of two crossed loop antennas and the polarimeter. In this paper, the principle and the system of observation are discussed. Showa Base is constructed on a rocky ground, so that the earth conductivity will be very low. The error due to very low conductivity will occur only in the case of measurement of polarization ratio and phase difference between normal and abnormal waves. But, these errors are thought to be negligible in most cases. Since 1963, the polarization and arriving direction of VLF emissions have been studied by means of two crossed loops with their planes in N-S and E-W directions, and the goniometer arrangement at Moshiri Observatory (geomag. lat. 34°). Except for few cases of high level emission events, the desirable data could not be obtained, because in the low latitude such as Moshiri, the emission levels are generally too low and the atmospherics are too strong to measure polarization and direction of the former. departmental bulletin paper Other/Unknown Material Antarc* Antarctic Nagoya University: NAGOYA Repository Antarctic The Antarctic Showa ENVELOPE(39.582,39.582,-69.004,-69.004)
