A new method of studying the relation between ionization rates and radio-wave absorption in polar-cap absorption events
During polar-cap absorption events, which are caused by the incidence of energetic solar protons, the high-latitude ionospheric D region is extended down to relatively low altitudes. While the incoming proton fluxes may be monitored by satellite-borne detectors, and the resulting radio-wave abso...
