Informal report on measurements of slant TEC by FORTE

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/645575· OSTI ID:645575

Los Alamos National Laboratory`s Space and Atmospheric Sciences group is now operating the FORTE satellite, which has two sets of instruments: optical detectors and radio detectors. In this report the author describes work with one set of radio detectors that allow measurements of the total electron content (TEC) traversed by VHF radiation originating at an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generator located at Los Alamos.
