Direct measurements by Voyagers 1 and 2 of the polarization of terrestrial kilometric radiation
1978
Measurements of the polarization of intense terrestrial kilometric radiation obtained with planetary radio astronomy experiments on Voyager-1 and 2 during the early portions of each flight show the signals to be predominantly left-hand circularly polarized. Since these emissions were most probably generated above the Northern hemisphere auroral zone, we conclude that the radiation is emitted primarily in the extraordinary mode.
