2 Observation instruments All-Sky Imager (ASI): ARR, Andenes, Norway (69.3°N, 16.03°E); 5577 Å and 6300 Å emissions; 10 s time resolution; 180° field of view in a 512x512 matrix; All-Sky Imager (ASI): Auroral Observatory, Longyearbyen, Svalbard (78.20°N, 15.83°E); Andenes Imaging Riometer for Ionospheric Studies (AIRIS): absorption of cosmic noise at 38.2 MHz by 49 beams (7x7 area) every second (electrons with energies 10÷x100keV and deposition heights centered at about 90 km); Imaging Riometer for Ionospheric Studies (IRIS): Kilpisjärvi, Finland (69.05°N, 20.79°E); 64-beam Imaging Riometer and magnetometer at Longyearbyen, 38.2 MHz absorption; Andenes Magnetometer: registers the magnetic field components every second. Simultaneous observations from several instruments are used:

3 Projected fields of view of ASI and IRIS Instruments projected fields of view: Longyearbyen All-Sky Imager 6300Å (emission altitude 250 km) 5577Å (emission altitude 120 km) Andenes All-Sky Imager 6300Å (emission altitude 250 km) 5577Å (emission altitude 120 km) Andenes Imaging Riometer (AIRIS) (90 km reference altitude) Imaging Riometer at Kilpisjärvi (IRIS) (90 km altitude) Imaging Riometer at Longyearbyen (90 km altitude)

4 Examined periods during 2005/2006 season  3-4.11.2005 – the most disturbed days in November (D1 and D2);  7-8.11.2005 – quiet period;  26.1.2006 – most disturbed day in the month (D1), all instruments had functioned

12 Summary  The behaviour of the 5577 Å and 6300 Å intensities and the absorption at 38.2 MHz in some cases under different conditions – during substorms and under quiet conditions, during the passage of recurrent high energy solar wind stream is examined;  During substorms, the energy spectrum of the precipitating particles is enhanced in the part of the higher energies;  I 6300 /I 5577 becomes 1.5-2 times smaller during substorms (~0.2) than in quiet conditions (~0.4-0.5);  I 6300 and I 5577 correlate very well regardless of the conditions.
