Upper-Atmosphere Densities during an Intense Magnetic Storm, from the LOGACS Experiment
Abstract
One of the most intense magnetic storms of recent years occurred on 25-26 May 1967 and coincided with the flight of the LOGACS (Low-G Accelerometer Calibration System) experiment aboard an Agena vehicle in a near-polar orbit. The acclerometer gave density values with an estimated accuracy better than 10% and a time resolution of one s, although at much longer and irregular intervals.
