Plasma density over Svalbard during the ISBJéRN campaign
In 1997, reliable operation of the EISCAT Svalbard Radar (ESR) was achieved and a rocket launching facility at Ny AÊ lesund on Svalbard (79°N, 12°E) (SVALRAK) was established. On 20 November, 1977, the ®rst instrumented payload was launched from SVALRAK. Although the payload con®guration had been ̄own many times previously from Andùya Rocket Range on the Norwegian mainland, this presented an un...
متن کاملRocket measurements of positive ions during polar mesosphere winter echo conditions
On 18 January 2005, two small, instrumented rockets were launched from Andøya Rocket Range (69.3◦ N, 16◦ E) during conditions with Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes (PMWE). Each of the rockets was equipped with a Positive Ion Probe (PIP) and a Faraday rotation/differential absorption experiment, and was launched as part of a salvo of meteorological rockets measuring temperature and wind using fall...
متن کاملSatellite Observations of Auroral Acceleration Processes
Measurements with satellite and sounding rocket borne instruments contain important information on remote and local processes in regions containing matter in the plasma state. The characteristic features of the particle distributions can be used to explain the morphology and dynamics of the different plasma populations. Charged particles are lost from a region due to precipitation into the atmo...
متن کاملOne Dimensional Internal Ballistics Simulation of Solid Rocket Motor
An internal ballistics model has been developed for performance prediction of a solid propellant rocket motor. In this model a 1-D unsteady Euler equation with source terms is considered. The flow is assumed as a non-reacting mixture of perfect gases with space and time varying thermo physical properties. The governing equations in the combustion chamber are solved numerically by using the Steg...

Japanese sounding rocket “S-310-35” was launched from Andøya Rocket Range in Norway on December 13, 2004 during Dynamics and Energetics of the Lower Thermosphere in Aurora (DELTA) campaign, in which the rocket-borne in-situ measurements and ground-based measurements were coordinated to carry out a comprehensive observation of the thermospheric response against the auroral energy input. The inst...
