The results of T/sub e/ measurements with an hf probe and a spherical Langmuir probe with modulation are discussed. Both instruments give the same results for a Maxwellian electron velocity distribution in the ionosphere. The distribution of T/sub e/ along the satellite orbit is presented, and the behavior of T/sub e/ in the polar region and above the geomagnetic equator is analyzed.
