    P78-2 SCATHA environmental data atlas (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The 100 eV to approximately 1 MeV plasma environment encountered by the P78-2 Spacecraft Charging at High Altitudes (SCATHA) satellite during its initial operation period was studied. Forty-four days of 10 minute averages of the four moments of the electron and ion distribution functions calculated from the SC5 and SC9 energetic particle measurements were analyzed to determine occurrence frequency, local time variation, geomagnetic activity variation, and L shell variation. The single and double Maxwellian parameters derived from the four moments were similarly analyzed. The interrelationships between the moments and derived parameters were computed and the results compared with the ATS-5 and ATS-6 atlas. Results of this analysis establish a baseline range for the SCATHA plasma environment.

    Analysis of ambient and beam particle characteristics during the ejection of an electron beam from a satellite in near-geosynchronous orbit on March 30, 1979 (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: An electron beam system was operated over a wide range of beam currents and energies for periods both in sunlight and in eclipse. Complex pitch angle modulations of the electron spectra are separately decomposed for each beam operation. When electrons are emitted perpendicular to the magnetic field with an energy of 3 keV and a current of 0.10 mA they return as a coherent beam only to the parallel detector. Throughout the beam operations the pitch angle distributions show electrons with energy less than beam energy streaming along the field line. Analytic expressions for the satellite electric field are constructed and particle trajectories are determined.

    Computer simulation of spacecraft charging on SCATHA (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Computer simulation to determine spacecraft charging on P78-2 (SCATHA) during a substorm and for modeling the effects of electron beam emission on the P78-2 ground potential for a variety of beam voltages and currents was used. Measured and computed spacecraft potentials are obtained to within several hundred eV. Computation of the electron beam emission effects on the spacecraft ground potential are shown. It is concluded that the spacecraft ground potential can be controlled by emitting an electron beam.

    Three-dimensional analysis of charging events on days 87 and 114, 1979, from SCATHA (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Angular distributions of ions and electrons from the Spacecraft Charging at High Altitudes (SCATHA) were investigated for the floating potential and the differential charging of the spacecraft as deduced from Liouville's theorem. The following was found: (1) short time charging events on the spacecraft are associated with short time increases of the intensity of 10 keV to 1 MeV electrons; (2) short time changes of the spacecraft differential potential are associated with simultaneous short time changes of the spacecraft floating potential; (3) solar UV intensities in penumbra anticorrelate with the spacecraft floating potentials; (4) NASCAP predicts correct forms of sunshade asymmetric surface potentials; (5) certain enhancements of the intensity of energetic ions diminishes the absolute value of the spacecraft surface potential; (6) spacecraft discharging events in times shorter than 20 sec did not change in the spectrum of the energetic plasma; (7) partial discharging of the spacecraft occurred upon entry into a magnetically depleted region; and (8) steady state potentials and transient potentials of duration less than 30 seconds are simulated by the NASCAP code.

    Operation of SC5 rapid scan particle spectrometer on SCATHA satellite (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The SC5 rapid scan particle spectrometer, operating on the SCATHA satellite, is discussed. SC5 in-orbit operation and reduction of electrostatic analyzer (ESA) spectra are addressed. ESA data summaries from ion and electron gun operations are explained. Data from gun operations show how the satellite potential responds and provide information on the various time constants involved.

    Disappearance and reappearance of particles of energies 50 keV as seen by P78-2 (SCATHA) near geosynchronous orbit (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The nightside particle environment as observed by the AFGL Rapid Scan Particle Detector on SCATHA showing large, sudden simultaneous changes in the fluxes of electrons and protons with energies above 50 keV (dropouts) is considered. An interesting feature of SCATHA dropouts is the quasiperiodic behavior of the particle flux amplitudes which often vary with a period of the order of 15 minutes both during the dropout and after the return. A flux return during eclipse caused a major spacecraft charging event of several kilovolts. The SCATHA observations are compared with those reported for other geosynchronous satellites. In agreement with ATS-5, a marked dependence in the frequency of occurrence due to an effect of the orbit is found. ATS-5 experienced few dropouts during quiet geomagnetic conditions. However, for an L shell greater than seven, SCATHA particle dropouts occur routinely during quiet conditions. Thus, for SCATHA's orbit, both the orbital position and geomagnetic conditions must be taken into account in evaluating the potential hazard of flux returns.
