Description
Summary:P(論文) In auroral substorms fractional contributions of auroral X-rays to an energetic electron detector of proportional counter were examined for several rocket experiments performed at Syowa Station, Antarctica. It is shown that time and spatial characteristics of electrons deduced from the in situ measurement using the proportional counter are occasionally deformed by a possible X-ray response of the counter sensitive to X-ray sources distributed all over the sky. departmental bulletin paper
