Satellite Observations of Radio Noise in the Magnetosphere

Nature volume 218, pages 1145–1147 (1968)Cite this article

Abstract

OBSERVATIONS on sounding rockets1–3 and satellites4,5 have revealed evidence for enhanced noise bands in the ionosphere and magnetosphere, especially between the plasma frequency f N and the upper hybrid frequency f T = ( f N 2 + f H 2 ) ½ , where f H is the electron gyrofrequency.
