Abstract: | A Langmuir probe operated in fixed bias mode was launched onboard a RH-560 rocket from the Sriharikota Range (SHAR, Lat.13° 42'N, Geog. Long.80° 14'E, dip 10°) India on October 1, 1980 at 21h03 IST, to study the electron density profile and the electron density irregularities in the equatorial spread-F. The payload was designed to study medium and large scale irregularities. A highly variable and structured electron density profile was obtained. This was the first rocket launch in the Indian zone during spread-F condition. |
