Preliminary Report of Rocket Observations of the Auroral Hiss

Preliminary Report of Rocket Observations of the Auroral Hiss

Two rockets with VLF receivers were launched from Syowa Station in Antarctica to study the electro-magnetic properties of auroral arcs. This paper is a preliminary report on the rocket observations. One payload was launched during relatively quiet auroral arc conditions. The other payload was launch...
