Correction [to “Observations of noise bands associated with the upper hybrid resonance by the Imp 6 Radio Astronomy Experiment”

Abstract

The intense noise bands occurring near the upper hybrid resonanace frequency have been observed with the Imp 6 GSFC radio astronomy experiment in the plasmasphere. The identification of the upper hybrid resonance provides an accurate measure of the local electron density and allows the observed noise data to be fit to the scale of characteristic frequencies in the plasma. The data are consistent with earlier theoretical interpretations in which noise is generated between the upper hybrid and plasma frequencies and propagates to region 4 of the CMA diagram, where it is reflected at the L=0 plasma cutoff.
