Scientific paper

Auroral acceleration and precipitation mechanisms were studied by performing measurements in the ionosphere in conjunction with the satellite Viking. Two rockets were launched to reach apogee as the magnetic foot point of Viking passed the rocket magnetic latitude. The first launch took place on Nov 4 at 2044:01 UT into a very broad and large auroral oval. The second rocket was launched on Dec 12 at 2021:36 UT at the poleward edge of an auroral arc. In both cases real time images from Viking were used to determine whether there was aurora in the path of the rocket. In the Nov 4 launch EISCAT was operated in a special Aureld-VIP mode. Electric field, magnetic field, and plasma measurements are shown.
