Ionization and excitation of the upper atmosphere during solar flares

The solar flares of importance 2B are surveyed. Their contribution to photoelectron production is determined, especially at high energies generated as a result of the Auger effect. The distribution of ionization and excitation of upper atmosphere emissions is investigated. The response of night mid-...

Zusammenfassung:The solar flares of importance 2B are surveyed. Their contribution to photoelectron production is determined, especially at high energies generated as a result of the Auger effect. The distribution of ionization and excitation of upper atmosphere emissions is investigated. The response of night mid-latitude ionosphere to solar flares is shown.
