The S-310JA-12 rocket was launched geomagnetically northward from Syowa Station, Antarctica, during a strong substorm period. The onboard instruments were a Faraday cup for measuring electron density and its fluctuations up to 8kHz together with total flux of electrons with energies above 105eV and...
