Zusammenfassung
We investigate the spectral properties of the ionospheric electric field during a period of high geomagnetic activity, namely on August 11 2018 from 21:40 to 22:17. The purpose is to detect possible signatures of the characteristic frequencies of the ions populating the ionosphere. In particular, we exploit measurements taken in the VLF band by the Electric Field Detector (EFD) onboard the Chinese Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite - 01 (CSES-01) spacecraft, orbiting at around 500km of altitude in a sun-synchronous orbit. In the temporal interval considered, a clear peak in the frequencies between 2.5 kHz and 5 kHz, with a well defined latitudinal pattern, is observed in the power spectral density of the electric field at equatorial latitudes between two density drops, consistent with the presence of two plasma bubbles. Such a pattern perfectly matches the latitudinal pattern of the O+ plasma frequency as calculated by density measurements taken concurrently by another CSES-01 payload, the Plasma Analyzer Package (PAP) suite. We discuss possible interpretations of the presence of this signature in terms of O+ electrostatic perturbations generated by the ionospheric dynamics during geomagnetically active periods.
