We present Monte Carlo simulations of the energy deposited by energetic electrons from the outer Van Allen belt precipitating into the atmosphere below 100 km. Consideration of the possible mechanism for the precipitation of outer belt electrons sugg

The intense event of highly relativistic electron (HRE) precipitation of May 1992 has been analyzed using data from ground-based observations (riometers and VLF phase measurements). Special attention was given to some features of this event observed

The middle atmosphere at the foot of the geomagnetic field lines of the outer belt of trapped radiation (about L =4) is a region of dramatically variable electron precipitation. Consequently, electrodynamic phenomena in the atmosphere of this region

Ozone, chlorine monoxide, methane, and submicron particulate concentrations were measured in the stratospheric plume wake of a Delta II rocket powered by a combination of solid (NH4ClO4/Al) and liquid (LOX/kerosene) propulsion systems. We apply a sim

The concentration of Cl2 in the stratospheric exhaust plume of a Titan IV launch vehicle was measured with a neutral mass spectrometer carried on a WB-57F aircraft at 18.9 km altitude. Twenty nine minutes after a twilight Titan IV launch, the mean Cl

In situ measurements of atmospheric ozone at an altitude of 40 km reveal a significant depletion event (~ 50%) coincident with the transit of the dawn terminator. The event developed in about 20 min and then recovered in about half that time. Simulta

Now that extrasolar planets have been found, it is timely to ask whether some of them might be suitable for life. Climatic constraints on planetary habitability indicate that a reasonably wide habitable zone exists around main sequence stars with spe

During the European Arctic Stratospheric Ozone Experiment (EASOE) the Arctic stratosphere was investigated with a set of instruments flown on a CNES high altitude balloon from ESRANGE, northern Sweden (67 deg 52 minutes N, 21 deg 4 minutes E) on Janu

We developed a rocket payload to perform in situ measurements of atmospheric ozone at the University of Houston. The ozone detector is a dual-beam UV-absorption photometer that uses the 253.7-nm radiation from a low-pressure mercury-vapor lamp to ill

A model in which a partially filled drift loss cone plays a prominent role is presently used to investigate relativistic electron data obtained by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program spacecraft in the outer belt region. The good agreement ob
