Popis: Night equilibrium concentrations of atmospheric and meteor ions are calculated from consideration of active meteor ionization. The extreme values of the effective recombination coefficient of meteor ions 10 −8 and 10 −10 cm 3 s −1 were taken. The influx of meteor matter on the Earth was assumed 60 tons a day. Theoretical altitude profiles of Mg + concentration are compared with the results of rocket mass-spectrometric measurements in the middle latitudes carried out by authors.
