Scientific paper

During simultaneous recordings by means of balloon-borne X-ray detectors, two cases of pulsating auroral-zone electron precipitation events have been observed, which were moving from east to west along the auroral zone. Both events were observed between 07.00 and 09.00 hr L.T. They moved with velocities of 120 and 150 km/min, and had periods of 300 and 500 sec, corresponding to wavelengths of about 600 and 1250 km respectively. Both events were superimposed upon the beginning phase of a more slowly varying electron precipitation event, and seem to represent modulation effects by some travelling hydromagnetic wave upon the main precipitation event.
