IPS Space Weather Research: Korea-Japan-UCSD

Abstract

Recently commissioned IPS (Interplanetary Scintillation) system at KSWC (Korean Space Weather Center) in Jeju Island, South Korea can measure the selected radio sources around the sky at 327 MHz which is same frequency for use in Japan during last 30 years to derive solar wind velocities and densities. UCSD have developed IPS 3-D analysis model which determine the heliographic 3-D structure based on the data from Solar Terrestrial Environment Laboratory (STELab), Japan. The new KSWC system is dedicated to IPS observation and observed data can be used for UCSD model input in addition to existing STELab system. But to do that, it is required to combine the observed data between different observing facilities which need verification and calibration against well developed system like STELab.
