Regional Vector E and F Region Coverage Experiment

This is an experiment designed to provide rapid time coverage of E and F region ionospheric parameters in the vicinity of Millstone Hill, in a cone with radius +/- 2 degrees at F region heights. The mode provides vector ion drifts/electric fields as well as electron density, electron and ion temperatures, and ion composition. Both the zenith and steerable MISA antennas are used. Integration time in any one position is either 3 or 4 minutes depending on antenna, with the possibility for shorter integrations in post-experiment analysis.

This page has the following summary plots of electron density:

  1. Zenith - F region - Nel
  2. Zenith - E region - Nel
  3. F region Misa el=45, az=-140 - Nel
  4. E region Misa el=45, az=-140 - Nel
  5. F region Misa el=45, az=-50 - Nel
  6. E region Misa el=45, az=-50 - Nel
Zenith - F region - Nel
Zenith - E region - Nel
F region Misa el=45, az=-140 - Nel
E region Misa el=45, az=-140 - Nel
F region Misa el=45, az=-50 - Nel
E region Misa el=45, az=-50 - Nel
