Abstract

The parameters of the Indian equatorial electrojet are obtained for the months April to August of the solar maximum year, 1958 and the solar minimum year, 1964. The half-width for the two epochs are found to be 297 km and 276 km respectively, showing only a small (change with solar activity. The total peak current intensity for 1958 is 186 A/km and for 1964 it is 97 A/km. The factor by which the normal current intensity is augmented in the electrojet is, however, found to be a little more for 1964 than for 1958.
