Optical evidence for mid-latitude charged particle precipitation

Measurements of the N 2 + λ427.8 nm emission from the atmosphere at a mid-latitude station show intensities correlated with Kp, typical values being about 1R at Kp = 3 to 4. It is concluded that charged particle precipitation is a major cause of the emission. Assuming the particles to be electrons o...
