Atmospheric Response Function for the Calculation of Riometer Absorption
In this report, an atmospheric model for the calculation of riometer absorption during Polar cap absorption events is given; specifically, an atmospheric response function is calculated and tabulated at necessary altitudes for (1) each month of the year, (2) day and night, and (3) 60 degrees N and 90 degrees N latitude. In addition, a polynomial fit to the atmospheric response function is given in terms of polynomial coefficients. Also tabulated for the conditions above are the collision frequency, atmospheric depth, and scale height.
Physics of the Sun
This volume, together with its two companion volumes, originated in a study commis sioned by the United States National Academy of Sciences on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. A committee composed of Tom Holzer, Dimitri Mihalas, Roger Ulrich and myself was asked to prepare a comprehensive review of current knowledge concerning the physics of the sun. We were fortunate in being able to persuade many distinguished scientists to gather their forces for the preparation of 21 separate chapters covering not only solar physics but also relevant areas of astrophysics and solar-terrestrial relations. It proved necessary to divide the chapters into three separate volumes th...
ELF-VLF Radio Wave Propagation
This volume is based on lectures and discussions presented at a NATO Advanced Study Institute on ELF and VLF Radio Wave Propagation, which was held in Norway April 1974. The study of propagation of electromagnetic waves with frequen cies below 100 kHz has long traditions in ionospheric physics. To-day, this frequency range is still of great importance, both to the physicist, who uses the waves as diagnostic tools to study the earth's environment and to the engineer who exploits the characteris tics of these waves to improve communications, navigation and timing systems. In recent years the active interest in the field has led to very rapid progress in the development of propagation theory as well as in the application of this theory to the solution of practical problems. The intention of the Organizing Committee for this Conference was to bring together theoreticians and experi mentalists working on the various aspects of wave propagation, in order to stimulate a fruitful discussion and exchange of ideas.
