Pulsating Aurora Imaging System

Pulsating Aurora Imaging System

The system is based on two lens telescopes with a matrix of multianode photomultiplier tubes as photodetectors placed in two high latitude observatories of the Polar Geophysical Institute: Lovozero and Verkhnetulomskaya. Telescopes provide simultaneous observations of a large volume of the atmosphere at altitudes in the range 50–100 km with high temporal resolution (up to 2.5 μs) and a spatial resolution of about 2 km. This is a novel system for pulsating aurora study aimed to determine the energies of precipitating electrons responsible for the pulsating aurora occurrence.

Quik-look data in a form of lightcurves, spectrograms and keograms are available at the PAIPS Database.
