(Auroral Light Fine Analysis)
SCIENTIFIC OBJECTIVES
- Study of the energy and material exchange inside the magnetic tubes reconnected at the magnetospheric boundaries
- Fine analysis of the light emissions dynamics
- Relation between the field-aligned currents and the emissions
- Formation of the density field-aligned irregularities in the regions of the precipitating electrons
- Energy exchange between the different spatial scales
- Plasma motion associated with the field-aligned currents
- Current closure in the conducting layer of the ionosphere
