“…The important features to note are, first, the noise bursts that occur sporadically on the waveform channel and, second, their correspondence with essentially simultaneous increases in the spectrum analyzer outputs. This suggests that the signal variability is principally due to the time-varying nature of a broadband noise or 'hiss,' as opposed to alternatives such as the irregular occurrence of large, relatively isolated pulses [Sonerr, 1960[Sonerr, , 1963Gintzburg, 1966]. This suggestion, which is implicit in the 0G0 1 data, has recently been confirmed on 0G0 3 (launched June 6, 1966), where sampled waveform data are available in the magnetosheath with frequency components of almost 100 hz that clearly reveal the broadband, noise-like character of these signals.…”
