Scientific paper

For the first time, daytime electron concentrations for the disturbed D-region, in particular, for the 2-5 November 1969 SPE (solar proton event), have been successfully matched with a model based on first principles. It appears that the daytime disturbed D-region consists of negatively negative ions such as O2(-), O(-), and CO4(-) which are readily subject to detachment processes involving photons, atomic oxygen, and O2(1 Delta), ions such as CO3(-) which easily photodissociate, and ions such as NO2(-) and NO3(-) which are relatively nonsubject to such mechanisms.
