Some Purposes and Methods of the Satellite Measurements of the Ignorospheric Response on the Solar Flares

摘要

The paper describes methods for measuring of the response of the ignorosphere to solar flares including small tethered systems. The small tethered satellites are very suitable for the following experiments: 1. Measurements of the high ionospheric photoelectron and Auger electron spectra because there is no large shadow effect from the satellite body at large pitch-angles and also parasitic photoelectron fluxes from the satellite body are small. 2. Measurements of the increase in emissions of the upper atmosphere and the investigation of the relationship between satellite glow and its altitude and dimensions. 3. Measurements of the increase in the electron and ion densities including optical and mass-spectrometric recording of the double charged positive ions which are formed due to Auger effect at the altitudes of ignorosphere.
