A case study of correspondence between Pc1 activity and ionospheric irregularities at polar latitudes

Abstract A possible driver of precipitation of magnetospheric energetic electrons in the high-latitude atmosphere is represented by electromagnetic ion-cyclotron (EMIC) magnetospheric waves. The precipitating particles produce variations, by collision, in the ionized component of the atmosphere, alt...
