Return current and heat transport into zero-order SAR arcs

Zero-order SAR arcs are defined here as those stable auroral red arcs having zero net field-aligned current in the same tube of magnetic force. At 880 km altitude they are invariably accompanied by precipitation of supra-thermal electrons of energy in the range (5– 10 eV ) sufficient for at least on...
