DC ELECTRIC FIELD IN SPACE : DIRECT MEASUREMENTS AND INFERENCES FROM COLD PLASMA DRIFTS.

• Data from the satellites GEOS-2 and ISEE are used for a comparison between electric fields directly measured on board satellites and inferred from drift properties of ambient plasma. It is found that, within the errors, a satisfactory agreement exists.
