Scientific paper

We report on ground-based optical studies of the fine structure of the aurora, conducted with a set of optical instruments and the EISCAT Svalbard radar. The optical instruments include ASK (Auroral Structure and Kinetics), and SIF (Spectrographic Imaging Facility). ASK is a high resolution multispectral imager with passband filters that isolates the O+ (7320 Å) emission, and the line of atomic oxygen at 7774 Å. SIF consists of one HiTIES spectrograph with a mosaic filter designed to study the same spectral features as ASK, and one ICCD imager with a cut-off filter blocking emissions with a wavelength shorter than 6450 Å. We compare the ionospheric ionisation as observed by ESR, and observed emission brightnesses, using electron transport and ion chemistry model.
