The first simultaneous observations made from a single DMSP satellite of visible auroral arcs, precipitating primary electrons, and atmospheric bremsstrahlung X-rays are presented for a magnetically disturbed auroral event. Measured electron fluxes were used to compute absolute X-ray distributions expected at the satellite altitude. The agreement between the calculated and measured X-ray spectra is sufficiently good to suggest that the primary electron spectra, which produce structured auroral arcs, can be inferred with an orbiting X-ray spectrometer.
