Abstract
The wave complex of the СПРУТ-VI instrument package was designed for monitoring the electromagnetic state around orbital stations. The method of combined wave probes enables simultaneous vector measurements of magnetic field fluctuations (in a frequency range from 0.1 Hz to 40 kHz) and the electric current density in plasma (in a range of 10–6–10–13 А cm–2), as well as determination of the station surface potential (in a range of 10–3–20 V). The complex was used onboard the Mir station for investigating the fine structure of distributions of ionospheric charged particles at low and near-equatorial latitudes.
