The high-energy tail of energetic electron precipitation: case studies
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesPrecipitating plasma sheet, ring current, and radiation belt electrons will affect the ionization level and composition of the neutral atmosphere. Knowledge gaps remain regarding the frequency, intensity, and energy spectrum of the Medium Energy Electron

Ionospheric Plasma Density Gradients Associated With Night‐Side Energetic Electron Precipitation
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Energetic electron precipitation from the equatorial magnetosphere into the atmosphere plays an important role in magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling: precipitating electrons alter ionospheric properties, whereas ionospheric outflows modify equatorial ...

Driver of Energetic Electron Precipitation in the Vicinity of Ganymede
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 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 ...

On the Effects of Bremsstrahlung Radiation During Energetic Electron Precipitation [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 AbstractPrecipitation of energetic particles into the Earth's atmosphere can significantly change the properties, dynamics, as well as the chemical composition of the upper and middle atmosphere. In this paper, using Monte Carlo models, we simulate, from first principles, the interaction of monoenergetic beams of precipitating electrons with the ...

Substorm‐induced energetic electron precipitation: Impact on atmospheric chemistry [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2015 AbstractMagnetospheric substorms drive energetic electron precipitation into the Earth's atmosphere. We use the output from a substorm model to describe electron precipitation forcing of the atmosphere during an active substorm period in April–May 2007.

Solar wind drivers of energetic electron precipitation [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2016 AbstractDisturbances of near‐Earth space are predominantly driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) mostly originating from sunspots and high‐speed solar wind streams (HSSs) emanating from coronal holes. Here we study the relative importance of CMEs and HSSs as well as slow solar wind in producing energetic electron precipitation.

Energetic Electron Precipitation During Slot Region Filling Events
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2023 The region separating the inner and outer radiation belt, typically devoid of energetic electrons, is termed the slot region. The outer edge of the slot region marks the equatorward edge of the energetic electron precipitation (EEP) originating from the outer radiation belt.

A study on the energetic electron precipitation observed by CSES
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2018 High energy particles are the main target of satellite space exploration; particle storm events are closely related to solar activity, cosmic ray distribution, and magnetic storms.
