Instrumentation for radio astronomy measurements aboard the IMP-I spacecraft
The design considerations and performance parameters of a satellite-borne instrumentation system are discussed. The system is designed to make radio astronomy measurements at eight discrete frequencies from 50 kHz to 3.53 MHz. These measurements are to detect solar and Jovian radio frequency bursts and to determine the average cosmic background radiation level down to 50 kHz. Procedures used for preflight and inflight calibration of the radiometer and the ground support equipment used for preflight testing are described
Kilometer-wave type III burst: Harmonic emission revealed by direction and time of arrival
A type III solar burst was observed at seven frequencies between 3.5 MHz and 80 kHz by the Michigan experiment aboard the IMP-6 satellite. From the data we can determine burst direction-of-arrival as well as time-of-arrival. We predict these quantities using simple models whose parameters we vary to obtain a good fit to the observations. We find that between 3.5 MHz and 230 kHz the observed radiation was emitted at the fundamental of the local plasma frequency while below 230 kHz it was emitted at the second harmonic. The exciter particles that produced the burst onset and burst peak have velocities of 0.27 and 0.12, respectively, in units of the velocity of light.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43734/1/11207_2004_Article_BF00153676.pd
