Observations in the E region ionosphere of kappa distribution functions associated with precipitating auroral electrons and discrete aurorae

Precipitating auroral electrons can produce discrete auroral arcs that contain signatures of the magnetospheric auroral source region. Differential number flux observations over two discrete aurorae were obtained by the Auroral Currents and Electrodynamics Structure sounding rocket mission, which su...
