Modelingatomic oxygen nightglow during the strong magnetic storm on 20 November 2003

摘要

Intensity variations in red line of atomic oxygen emission were analyzed using the ionosphere-plasmasphere couplingmodel. These variations were caused by precipitation of energetic electrons from the magnetosphere during the 20November 2003 geomagnetic storm. The findings were compared to the optical data measured inGeophysical observatory of the ISTP SB RAS (520 N, 1030 E).
