Scientific paper

A multichannel meridian scanning photometer system monitored electron and proton precipitation patterns over a range from 59 to 79 deg invariant latitude during the International Magnetospheric Study. The developments of auroral substorms, mostly occurring in the premidnight sector, are traced, showing characteristically H beta emissions equatorward of the electron aurora prior to substorm onset. At onset there is a brightening of H beta and a poleward expansion. Following most such auroral substorms, in the postmidnight sector the aurora spreads into diffuse, patchy forms and pulsations begin, often lasting until morning.
