Ionization from soft electron precipitation in the auroral F region
Rocket-borne instrumentation, launched into the morning sector auroral zone from Sondre Stromfjord, Greenland, detects electron density enhancements correlated with enhancements in the flux of soft (less than 1 keV) downgoing electrons. These electron density enhancements seem most likely to have be...
