Scientific paper
The HILAT experiment has been in progress to study small scale features in the earth's ionosphere that display plasma instabilities due to interactions with Birkeland currents. The spacecraft carries a three-axis fluxgate magnetometer with a resolution of 0.314 sec and 20 nanoteslas. Each axial sensor transmits 20 samples per second. A numerical model has been defined for the Birkeland currents and the magnitude of observed deviations. The data are being analyzed with an eye to the relationship between the small-scale Birkeland currents and ionospheric scintillations. Sample data from 100 sec of measurements of magnetic field disturbances are provided.
