Abstract

Abstract. We present the historical background to the construction of a major ionospheric heating facility near Tromsø, Norway in the 1970s by the Max Planck Institute for Aeronomy and the subsequent operational history to the present. It was built next to the EISCAT incoherent scatter radar facility and in a region with a multitude of diagnostic instruments used to study the auroral region. The facility was transferred to the EISCAT Scientific Association in January 1993 and continues to provide new discoveries in plasma physics and ionospheric and atmospheric science to this day. It is expected that ‘Heating’ will continue operating together with the new generation of incoherent scatter radar, called EISCAT_3D, when it is commissioned in the near future.

特罗姆瑟电离层加热设施的历史

摘要我们介绍了20世纪70年代马克斯·普朗克航空研究所在挪威特罗姆瑟附近建造一个主要电离层加热设施的历史背景，以及随后至今的运行历史。它建在EISCAT非相干散射雷达设施旁边，所在地区有大量用于研究极光区域的诊断仪器。该设施于1993年1月移交给EISCAT科学协会，至今仍在提供等离子体物理学、电离层和大气科学方面的新发现。预计“加热”将在不久的将来投入使用时，与新一代非相干散射雷达EISCAT_3D一起继续运行。

期刊介绍： The scope of History of Geo- and Space Sciences (HGSS) is to document historical facts and knowledge and to improve awareness of the history of geoscience. The knowledge of the development of geosciences and their experimental methods and theories in the past can improve our current understanding and may stimulate current research. It is encouraging for young scientists to read biographical material of historical figures in their research area. It is important as well to learn that history of science is an integrated part of the ongoing research in their research area. Another important aim of the journal is the association of historical retrospective and current research.
