Abstract This study presents simultaneous measurements of electron phase space density (PSD) gradients in geostationary orbit using data from GK2A, GOES‐16, and GOES‐17. By leveraging a three‐satellite configuration, we provide statistical results of PSD gradient estimation in invariant coordinates.

Characterizing Ion‐Scale Fluctuations Around Dipolarization Fronts in Earth's Magnetotail
Abstract In the Earth's magnetotail bursty bulk flows are often associated with dipolarizing magnetic flux bundles. The leading edges of such earthward‐moving flux bundles are called dipolarization fronts (DF). In the present study we investigate the characteristics of ion‐scale oscillations embedded inside DFs, using observations from NASA's ...

EMIC wave spatial and coherence scales as determined from multipoint Van Allen Probe measurements
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves can provide a strong source of energetic electron pitch angle scattering. These waves are often quite localized, thus their spatial extent can have a large effect on their overall scattering efficiency.

Radiation belt electron dropouts indicate electron flux decay to the background level during geomagnetic storms, which is commonly attributed to the effects of wave-induced pitch angle scattering and magnetopause shadowing.

Van Allen Probes, THEMIS, GOES, and Cluster Observations of EMIC waves, ULF pulsations, and an electron flux dropout [PDF]
We examined an electron flux dropout during the 12-14 November 2012 geomagnetic storm using observations from seven spacecraft: the two Van Allen Probes, Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS)-A (P5), Cluster 2, and ...

Sporadic Aurora near Geomagnetic Equator: In the Philippines, on 27 October 1856 [PDF]
While low latitude auroral displays are normally considered to be a manifestation of magnetic storms of considerable size, Silverman (2003, JGR, 108, A4) reported numerous "sporadic auroras" which appear locally at relatively low magnetic latitudes ...

Helium, Oxygen, Proton, and Electron (HOPE) Mass Spectrometer for the Radiation Belt Storm Probes Mission [PDF]
The HOPE mass spectrometer of the Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP) mission (renamed the Van Allen Probes) is designed to measure the in situ plasma ion and electron fluxes over 4π sr at each RBSP spacecraft within the terrestrial radiation belts.
