Measurement of auroral magnetic field with the Antarctic sounding rocket S-310JA-12

A rocket containing a triaxial fluxgate magnetometer was launched from Syowa Station, Antarctica, at 1935 UT on July 12,1985. Magnetic anomalous field was measured with high sampling time of every 10ms. The vector magnetometer indicated an existence of field-aligned currents in the vicinity of an au...

Description
Summary:A rocket containing a triaxial fluxgate magnetometer was launched from Syowa Station, Antarctica, at 1935 UT on July 12,1985. Magnetic anomalous field was measured with high sampling time of every 10ms. The vector magnetometer indicated an existence of field-aligned currents in the vicinity of an auroral arc and electrojet currents at the ionospheric level.
