Scientific paper

A statistical survey of the occurrence of upflowing He(+) is presented based on observations obtained above the high-latitude ionosphere by the DE-1 energetic ion mass spectrometer. The results indicate that the spatial and temporal distribution of upflowing He(+) in the 10-17 keV energy range follows a pattern similar to those of H(+) and O(+) in this energy range. It is also found that energetic He(+) is only a minor part of this ion outflow.
