Scientific paper

Recent results obtained with electric and magnetic receivers aboard a NASA sounding rocket launched on July 31, 1987 are presented which relate multiple electron spectral peaks observed in the bounce loss cone fluxes to the resonant interaction of electrons with VLF waves from ground transmitters. The correlation of transmitter signals passing through the ionosphere with the precipitated electrons was investigated. The analysis of these in situ wave and particle data addresses the propagation of waves through the ionosphere, and, through an application of the resonant theory, enables an estimation of the cold plasma density in the interaction region.
