Summary: | The Interball Tail Probe satellite together with its subsatellite Magion-4 were launched into a highly elliptic orbit with a 30R
E apogee and a 63° inclination on August 3, 1995. The plasma wave analyser on the Magion-4 performs analysis of the magnetic field fluctuations in the frequency range 32–2000 Hz. The Interball was operating in the magnetospheric tail from October 1995 until February 1996. The results of the Magion-4 wave measurements of electron cyclotron and lower hybrid electromagnetic modes in the regions of the magnetospheric tail directly connected with auroral ionosphere are presented in this paper. |
