FARADAY ROTATION DATA: BANGKOK, THAILAND

Abstract

The data contained in this bulletin are experimental results obtained by analyzing Faraday rotation records obtained from the S-66 (Explorer 22) radio beacon satellite. Half-wave dipole antennas are used to receive 20-, 40-, and 41-MHz unmodulated signals. The rotation rate technique is applied to calculate the equivalent vertical electron content from a portion of the record near the transverse position. The electron content is calculated at the transverse position.
