Simultaneous Precipitation of Sub‐Relativistic Electron Microburst and Pulsating Aurora Electrons
AbstractWe have identified for the first time an energy‐time dispersion of precipitating electron flux in a pulsating aurora patch, ranging from 6.7 to 580 keV, through simultaneous in‐situ observations of sub‐relativistic electrons of microburst precipitations and lower‐energy electrons using the Loss through Auroral Microburst Pulsation sounding ...

A Method for Imaging Energetic Particle Precipitation With Subionospheric VLF Signals
Energetic particle precipitation (EPP) is a key loss mechanism for radiation belt particles. Quantification of the precipitation loss rate feeds into the electron lifetimes used by radiation belt models and is needed to improve understanding of radiation

Exceptional middle latitude electron precipitation detected by balloon observations: implications for atmospheric composition [PDF]
Energetic particle precipitation leads to ionization in the Earth's atmosphere, initiating the formation of active chemical species which destroy ozone and have the potential to impact atmospheric composition and dynamics down to the troposphere.

Effect of EMIC waves on relativistic and ultrarelativistic electron populations: Ground-based and Van Allen Probes observations [PDF]
We study the effect of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves on the loss and pitch angle scattering of relativistic and ultrarelativistic electrons during the recovery phase of a moderate geomagnetic storm on 11 October 2012.

Driver of Energetic Electron Precipitation in the Vicinity of Ganymede
The driver of energetic electron precipitation into Ganymede's atmosphere has been an outstanding open problem. During the Juno flyby of Ganymede on 7 June 2021, Juno observed significant downward‐going electron fluxes inside the bounce loss cone of ...
