Scientific paper

Three months' observations, obtained at Brisbane of the scintillations of the 20 Mc/s transmissions from Explorer VII, have been analysed in order to discover the nature of the ionospheric irregularities responsible. The irregularities are found to be field-aligned and to have dimensions of the order of 1 km. A considerable number of bursts of scintillation activity are found usually in association with the frequency-spreading type of spread-F but infrequently with the range-spreading type. This is interpreted as meaning that the irregularities associated with frequency-spreading have a more patchy horizontal distribution than those associated with range spreadingE The horizontal dimensions of the patches are estimated to be of the order of 100 km or more.
