Scientific paper

Mirroring clusters of ions have been observed by the UCSD auroral particles experiment on ATS 6. The dayside clusters are confined to the equatorial region, while the nightside events are low pitch angle and presumably associated with auroral processes. The bounce period of the clusters allows determination of the ion mass, and heavy ions have been observed.
