Investigation of EMIC wave scattering as the cause for the BARREL 17 January 2013 relativistic electron precipitation event: A quantitative comparison of simulation with observations [PDF]
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves were observed at multiple observatory locations for several hours on 17 January 2013. During the wave activity period, a duskside relativistic electron precipitation (REP) event was observed by one of the ...

Determining EMIC Wave Vector Properties Through Multi-Point Measurements: The Wave Curl Analysis. [PDF]
AbstractElectromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves play important roles in particle loss processes in the magnetosphere. Determining the evolution of EMIC waves as they propagate and how this evolution affects wave‐particle interactions requires accurate knowledge of the wave vector, k.

Identification of ring current proton precipitation driven by scattering of electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves [PDF]
Among the most intense emissions in the Earth's magnetosphere, electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are regarded as a critical candidate contributing to the precipitation losses of ring current protons, which however lacks direct multi-point ...

Confirmation of EMIC wave driven relativistic electron precipitation [PDF]
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are believed to be an important source of pitch angle scattering driven relativistic electron loss from the radiation belts. To date, investigations of this precipitation have been largely theoretical in nature,

Full‐wave modeling of EMIC waves near the He+ gyrofrequency [PDF]
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are known to be excited by the cyclotron instability associated with hot and anisotropic ion distributions in the equatorial region of the magnetosphere and are thought to play a key role in radiation belt ...

Oxygen torus and its coincidence with EMIC wave in the deep inner magnetosphere: Van Allen Probe B and Arase observations [PDF]
We investigate the longitudinal structure of the oxygen torus in the inner magnetosphere for a specific event found on 12 September 2017, using simultaneous observations from the Van Allen Probe B and Arase satellites. It is found that Probe B observed a

Ionospheric Plasma Density Oscillation Related to EMIC Pc1 Waves [PDF]
AbstractWe report the first observation of plasma density oscillations coherent with magnetic Pc1 waves. Swarm satellites observed compressional Pc1 wave activity in the 0.5–3 Hz band, which was coherent with in situ plasma density oscillations. Around the Pc1 event location, the Antarctic Neumayer Station III (L ~ 4.2) recorded similar Pc1 events in ...
