Vertical profiles of the ion and electron densities according to data from the ID-1R and ZOND-R instruments on board the 'Vertical-10' rocket
Abstract
A technical description is presented of the ID-1R and ZOND-R instruments on board the 'Vertical-10' geophysical research rocket. Detailed block diagrams illustrating the principal components of both devices are provided. The vertical profiles obtained with the devices are compared with electron and ion density profiles from the 1979 International Reference Ionosphere (IRI-79) for the 100-1400 km range.
