Research Directed Toward the Collection, Reduction and Evaluation of Geomagnetic Field Data and Electric Field Phenomena, Atmospheric and Terrestrial.

Abstract

The report deals with the study of the earth's geomagnetic field at both low and high altitudes. Part of the study was implemented using sub-orbital rocket payloads which contained airborne magnetometers; electric field devices, and a particle counter. The data was FM multiplexed over a telemetry link to the ground station where it was recorded in analog form on magnetic tape. (Author)
