Scientific paper
The Intercosmos Bulgaria-1300 satellite measured magnetic and electric fields, airglow, and precipitating particles near the midnight meridian. A three-dimensional structure of field-aligned currents was found to exist in the midnight sector of the auroral oval during quiet and slightly perturbed periods: (1) an intense current into the ionosphere in the near-polar region; (2) an intense current from the ionosphere further toward the equator; and (3) in the low-latitude part, a current into the ionosphere whose magnitude is substantially less than that of the first two currents and which is part of zone 2 of evening-sector currents.
