Oyama Ciencias de la Tierra Ionosphere plasma bubble electron density plasma instability electron temperature A French-Brazilian micro satellite (FBM) is scheduled to be launched in 2004. It will be placed in a low inclination (about6 degrees) equatorial circular orbit at a height of 700 km. Among other French and Brazilian experiments, it will carry a PlasmaDiagnostics Package (PDP) consisting of three experiments. A High Frequency Capacitance probe (HFC) to measure the absoluteelectron density along the satellite trajectory; a Langmuir Probe (LP) to measure the relative variation and the spectral distributionof electron density, and an Electron Temperature Probe (ETP) to measure the variations in the electron temperature and the spacepotential. The main objective of the PDP experiments is to make global observations of the characteristic features of low-latitudeplasma bubbles, and to study the dynamic and electrodynamic processes that control the generation, development and decay ofplasma bubbles. These satellite observations will be complemented by observations from a network of Ionosondes, Digisondes,Polarimeters, and VHF radars operated simultaneously from selected ground stations in Brazil and in other collaborating countries.The Brazilian experiments on board FBM will be controlled by the Brazilian Payload Computer (BPC), linked with the maincomputer that controls the functioning and operations of the satellite. Data from the LP experiment can be processed on board tosave data memory. 2004 artículo científico 0016-7169 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56843202 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=568 Geofísica Internacional application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Geofísica Internacional (México) Num.2 Vol.43 |
