Scientific paper

The paper reports results of direct simultaneous rocket measurements of ozone, NO, and positive ion concentrations, and of temperature in the middle atmosphere during intense solar proton events in Oct. 1989. A sharp increase in ion density above 30 km, a strong increase in NO density with a peak of 2 x 10 exp 9/cu cm at heights of 45-55 km, a drop in the ozone concentration above 35 km with a maximum decrease of about 20 percent at 50 km, and a cooling of the atmosphere at 45-65 km were observed.
