Scientific paper

Data are collected by electron detectors aboard a sounding rocket measuring the primary electron spectrum and the energy flux on the field lines containing auroral light in the E region. These data are compared to calculations based on spectroscopic measurements of the auroral lines 4278, 5577, and 6300 A used in predicting the energy influx and the characteristic energy of an assumed Maxwellian primary electron spectrum for two auroral displays. Data were also collected by photometers sampling the auroral light from the E region magnetically conjugate to the rocket. These data are compared to those of current ionospheric models.
