Scientific paper

Alouette-2 VLF data often show broad-band ELF emissions in the invariant latitude range from 50 to 80 deg N. These emissions have maximum intensity over a region several degrees in width. The occurrence of these emissions is shown to be related to the period of Pi2 micropulsations, to the plasma-sheet inner boundary, and during increased magnetic activity, to the plasmapause. This result is consistent with a prediction of Saito and Sakurai (1970) that the plasma-sheet inner boundary comes close to the plasmapause when the value of the Kp index is not less than 2 (neutral).
