The characteristics of the emissions of the dayside cusp aurora were studied. The occurence and duration of discrete auroral forms superimposed on the permanent 630 nm belt (transient, rayed arcs and bands) were carefully mapped and investigated. Special attention is given to the dynamics of the dayside cusp aurora. The conclusion is that a dayside current system exists and that it is associated with the position of the cusp aurora. The intensity and movements of this current system are correlated with the nightside electroject. It is suggested that a discontinuity similar to the Harang discontinuity exists in the dayside cusp around magnetic noon. Some unsolved auroral problems, which preferably can be studied by sounding rockets from the cusp region, are pointed out.
