Vs. Davydov et Vv. Pivovarov, SOME RESULTS OF 3-D AURORA RECONSTRUCTION BASED ON SINGLE TV IMAGE AND HEIGHT PROFILES OF BRIGHTNESS, Geomagnetizm i aeronomia, 34(5), 1994, pp. 157-160
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.
