Are variations in PMSE intensity affected by energetic particle precipitation?
The correlation between variations in Polar Mesosphere Summer Echoes (PMSE) and variations in energetic particle precipitation is examined. PMSE were observed by the Esrange VHF MST Radar (ESRAD) at 6753 N, 2106 E. The 30 MHz riometer in Abisko (6824 N, 1854 E) registered radio wave absorption caused by ionization changes in response to energetic particle precipitation. The relationship between...

متن کاملThe response of the middle atmosphere to energetic particle precipitation
Accurate representation of odd-nitrogen species (NOx) in the winter polar middle atmosphere is an important factor in correctly predicting ozone in the upper stratosphere. The concentration of NOx depends on several factors, including the state of stratospheric winds, the strength of diffusive transport near the mesopause, and the deposition of energetic particles in the mesosphere and the lowe...
متن کاملAre Helium Line Intensities Affected by Abundance Variations?
Solar wind measurements show that the helium abundance in the outer solar atmosphere is not constant. Recent research has isolated some of the physical mechanisms that determine helium abundance variations along an open magnetic field line: gravitational settling in both the chromosphere and corona tends to transport helium downward, while the thermal force in the transition region and the drag...
متن کاملFactors Affecting The Intensity of Solar Energetic Particle Events
This paper updates the influence of environmental and source factors of shocks driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that are likely to influence the solar energetic particle (SEP) events. The intensity variation due to CME interaction reported in [1] is confirmed by expanding the investigation to all the large SEP events of solar cycle 23. The large SEP events are separated into two groups, ...
