Scientific paper

A study based on data from Hawkeye 1, Imp 6 and Imp 8 satellites has shown that the intense kilometric radio emissions generated over the nightside auroral regions are beamed into a cone-shaped region whose axis of symmetry is tilted away from the magnetic axis of the earth, toward evenings, by about 20 deg. The solid angle of this emission cone increases systematically with increasing frequency, varying from about 1.1 sr at 56.2 kHz to about 3.5 sr at 178 kHz.
