Scientific paper

Photometric observations of pulsating auroras made from four locations on a magnetic meridian are discussed. The observations are used to develop a set of physical characteristics with which to test theoretical mechanisms for the production of pulsations. The most commonly observed periods are found to be 5-10 s. Statistical evidence is found for shorter periods at lower latitudes. The period is seen as decreasing near dawn, a tendency which is more pronounced at lower latitudes.
