Abstract

Abstract An energy spectrum of electrons from 180 to 550 keV precipitating into the dayside polar ionosphere was observed under a geomagnetically quiet condition (AE ≤ 100 nT, Kp = 1‐). The observation was carried out at 73–184 km altitudes by the HEP instrument onboard the RockSat‐XN sounding rocke...
