Scientific paper

The ratio, [psi], of Q (the production rate of electron-ion pairs) to N2 (the steady-state electron density squared) has been calculated for solar cosmic ray event conditions over the altitude range 40 < Z < 80 km. The calculations were accomplished by determining the production rate from direct measurements of the particle spectra and using electron density values determined by multifrequency riometers. The ratio, [psi], is shown as a function of altitude and of the number density of neutral molecules. A comparison with theoretical values for [psi] shows a disagreement not easily explained.
