Mid-Latitude Electron Density Profile as Revealed by Rocket Experiments

The mechanism of mid-latitude Pi2 waves in the upper ionosphere as revealed by combined Doppler and magnetometer observations

The interpretation of simultaneous ionospheric Doppler sounding and ground magnetometer observations of low-latitude Pi2 waves is revised. We compare the theoretical estimates of the ionospheric Doppler velocity for the same amplitude of the ground magnetic disturbances produced by a large-scale compressional mode and an Alfvén mode. The plasma vertical displacement caused by the wave electric ...

Electron density and plasma waves in mid-latitude sporadic-E layer observed during the SEEK-2 campaign

The SEEK-2 campaign was carried out over Kyushu Island in Japan on 3 August 2002, by using the two sounding rockets of S310-31 and S310-32. This campaign was planned to elucidate generation mechanisms of Quasi-Periodic Echoes (QPEs) associated with mid-latitude sporadic-E(Es) layers. Electron number densities were successfully measured in the Es layers by using the impedance probe on board two ...

Immunoglobulin structure and function as revealed by electron microscopy.

Electron-microscopic (EM) analysis preceded crystallographic analysis [1,2] of Igs by over a decade and was for a time the only direct way of analyzing their 3-D molecular structure. Once the X-ray structures were deduced, the role of EM gradually shifted from gross structural analysis to the addressing of more sophisticated structural and functional questions. EM remains a vital adjunct to the...

Cellular structural biology as revealed by cryo-electron tomography.

Understanding the function of cellular machines requires a thorough analysis of the structural elements that underline their function. Electron microscopy (EM) has been pivotal in providing information about cellular ultrastructure, as well as macromolecular organization. Biological materials can be physically fixed by vitrification and imaged with cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) in a close-...
