The 10th ESLAB Symposium was held at Grossenzersdorf near Vienna on
10-13 June 1975 under the title 'The Scientific Satellite Programme
During the Inter national Magnetospheric Study'. The Symposium was
attended by an invited audience of 60 scientists from the ESA
Member States, the United States, Japan, Canada and Austria.
Following a report by the joint COSPAR-IUCSTP Special Working
Group, the International Magnetospheric Study (lMS) is proposed as
an international co operative enterprise of limited duration,
having as its principal objective the achie vement of a
comprehensive, quantitative understanding of the dynamical
processes operating in the Earth's plasma and field environment. In
order to accomplish this objective, it is thought to be necessary
to carry out simultaneous measurements with nearly identical
instrumentation at various points in space. These measurements will
need to be made in combination with appropriate observations at or
near the Earth's surface. Besides near-Earth observations by
ground-based, rocket- and balloon-borne instrumentation, satellite
investigations are expected to make an important contri bution to
the IMS. A number of satellites assigned to magnetospheric research
have recently been launched, or will be launched shortly, to be
operational during the IMS. The European Space Agency has devoted
two of its forthcoming scientific satellites - GEOS and ISEE-B - to
magnetospheric and interplanetary research."
