The anisotropy of albedo re-entrant at midlatitudes

  • 1. Potchefstroom Univ. for C.H.E. (South Africa)

Description

The trajectories of albedo particles ejected at mid-latitudes with rigidities of 1 GV were traced by computer simulation to determine the angles of incidence, and hence the anisotropy, of re-entrant albedo particles. It was deduced from this study, and also from the results of a balloon flight, that re-entrant albedo particles prefer incidence from directions near the vertical. (orig./WBU)

Abstract (German)

Die Bahnen von Rueckstossteilchen, die in mittleren Breiten mit Energien von 1 GV ausgestossen werden, wurden durch Computer-Simulation aufgezeichnet, um die Einfallswinkel und damit die Anisotropie von wieder eintretenden Rueckstossteilchen zu bestimmen. Aus diesen Untersuchungen und auch aus Ergebnissen eines Ballonfluges wurde abgeleitet, dass wieder eintretende Rueckstossteilchen vorzugsweise aus fast vertikalen Richtungen einfallen. (orig./WBU)
