Scientific paper

The German and Japanese cooperation program, concerning the development of a resonance cone instrument, is presented. The aim of the device is the measurement of the electron density and temperature and the study of the nonthermal plasma properties in the ionosphere. The instrument is launched from Kagashima Space Center (Japan), on the 25th of January 1989. The electron density and temperature profiles are reported. The results show nonreciprocity effects that may be related to non-Maxwellian distribution functions. Nonthermal plasma properties could not be detected, in agreement with the absence of the typical temperature anomaly around 90 to 120 km.
