Spectral studies of small-scale auroral structure and plasma instability in the high-latitude ionosphere
Optical measurements of small-scale auroral structures are here combined with spectrographic data in order to study the relationship between auroral morphology and the energy characteristics of the precipitating population. It is shown that rayed auroral structures are associated with precipitating...
