Research Abstract |
We developed a method to estimate the spatial and energy distributions of auroral precipitating electrons from several monochromatic images and cosmic noise absorption observed with optical imagers and imaging riometer, taking into account 3-dimensional distribution of auroral luminosity. Applying this method to the high-spatial-resolution auroral data obtained by the comprehensive observations in the northern Scandinavia and Alaska, we investigated the spatial and temporal variations of energy distribution of precipitating electrons during the substorm and an influence of the precipitating electrons on the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling process.
