Abstract
An analysis of auroral brightness height profiles have shown that thei r form in the absence of rays is approximately stable and only their a mplitude changes. This fact allows to develop iterative algorithm for tomographic reconstruction of approximate 3-D aurora using single TV i mage and height profiles of brightness measured by rocket-borne photom eters. Some results of 3-D aurora reconstruction are presented.
