Abstract:

This paper studies the ionospheric and geomagnetic response to an X6.2 solar flare recorded at 14:30 UT on December 13, 2001, in quiet geomagnetic conditions which allow the variations in the geomagnetic field and ionosphere measurements to be easily related to the solar flare radiation. By using measurements from the global positioning system (GPS) and geomagnetic observatories, the temporal evolution of ionospheric total electron content variation, vTEC V , and geomagnetic field variations, δB, as well as their rates of variation, were obtained around the subsolar point at different solar zenith angles. The enhancement of both parameters was recorded one to three minutes later than the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) programme recording; such delay tends to depend on the latitude, longitude, and solar zenith angle of the observatory's observations. The vTEC V is related to the local time and the δB to the intensity and position of the ionospheric currents. The vTEC V ′s maximum value is always recorded later than the maximum values reached by δB and the X-ray intensity. The maximum δB is larger in the local morning than in the afternoon. The rates of vTEC V and δB have two maximum values at the same time as the maximum values recorded by Hα (for each ribbon). This work shows the quantitative and qualitative relations between a solar flare and the ionospheric and geomagnetic variations that it produces. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
