Evaluation of energy parameters of auroral electrons by using photometric observations and its application to investigate a generation mechanism
The relations between average energy and total energy flux of incident electrons are examined for three types of auroras, namely, type A aurora, pulsating aurora, and discrete aurora in auroral break up. The energy parameters of primary electrons are derived by using measured intensities at 844.6nm...
