Swept Neutral Pressure Instrument (SNeuPI): Investigating Gravity Waves In The Ionosphere

A swept neutral pressure instrument(SNeuPI) is used to study the effect of gravity waves on the composition of the ionosphere. When mounted on a nanosatellite in the low earth orbit, changes in atmospheric pressure due to gravity waves are measured as the changes in neutral gas density. This measure...
