  1. RISR-C & Future Auroral Observations Eric Donovan, Emma Spanswick, Al Weatherwax 2011 Post-AGU SWT – San Francisco

  3. Vision for Future Optics/Riometry

  4. 1,9,17 6,14,22 4,12,20 3,11,19 7,15,23 0,8,16 2,10,18 5,13,21 Apogees are ~9 hours apart, 72 hours later Apogee returns to more or less the same longitude Drift in longitude in my “demo” is due to rotation in GSE with fixed axis in GEI

  5. At the present time we operate the 16 THEMIS-ASIs, as well as multi-spectral imagers of various types at (most & soon all of) the sites indicated by the green FOVs. We plan to replace the MSI network, with a homogeneous network of 10 Hz greenline/10 Hz blueline/0.5 Hz redline imagers. We want a homogeneous network at those 13 sites, spanning the latitudes relevant for RISR, MMS, THEMIS, and RBSP. RISR-C

  6. We operate the four former CANOPUS MSPs. A fifth is being built under contract from Martin Connors, and will be deployed to ATHA (the current ATHA MSP will go to Rabbit Lake). We are planning 5 or more additional MSPs or imaging spectrographs through the CFI. In addition we plan 8 imaging riometers. Our objective is to provide quantitative, high-time/space imaging of the low & high energy electron and proton aurora spanning the nightside transition region.
