Prediction of Dynamic Plasmapause Location Using a Neural Network [PDF]

open access: diamondSpace Weather, 2021
As a common boundary layer that distinctly separates the regions of high‐density plasmasphere and low‐density plasmatrough, the plasmapause is essential to comprehend the dynamics and variability of the inner magnetosphere.

Plasmapause surface wave oscillates the magnetosphere and diffuse aurora [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Theoretical studies suggested that plasmapause surface waves related to the sharp inhomogeneity exist and act as a source of geomagnetic pulsations.

Plasmapause Surface Waves Triggered by Substorms [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2022
AbstractIn this study, we present in‐situ measurement on board Van Allen Probes showing that surface wave can cause oscillations of the plasmapause and modulate hiss and electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves. Plasmapause surface wave (PSW) in Ps6 band was observed during an intense substorm on 16 July 2017, accompanied with quasi‐periodic emissions ...

Sawtooth and dune auroras simultaneously driven by waves around the plasmapause

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics, 2023
The dune aurora, at a scale of ~30 kilometers, was reported recently using ground camera. The small-scale dune aurora occurs on the duskside and exhibits a monochromatic oscillation in the auroral emission, implying fundamental energy conversions ...

Links of the Plasmapause With Other Boundary Layers of the Magnetosphere: Ionospheric Convection, Radiation Belt Boundaries, Auroral Oval

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
The plasmapause marks the limit of the plasmasphere and is characterized by a sudden change in plasma density. This can influence the other regions of the magnetosphere, including due to different waves circulating inside and outside the plasmasphere. In

Observational Evidence for Whistler Mode Waves Guided/Ducted by the Inner and Outer Edges of the Plasmapause

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
We present observational support for whistler mode waves guidance by the plasmapause gradients based on a case study and statistical analyses. Due to the combined effects of inhomogeneous magnetic fields and plasma densities, whistler mode waves near the

The Evolution of Whistler Hiss‐Like Waves Across Plasmapause: Hiss to Exohiss

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The exohiss waves are hiss‐like whistler mode waves that occur outside plasmapause. Although these waves can cause the loss of radiation belt electrons ∼

On How High-Latitude Chorus Waves Tip the Balance Between Acceleration and Loss of Relativistic Electrons. [PDF]

open access: yesGeophys Res Lett, 2019
Modeling and observations have shown that energy diffusion by chorus waves is an important source of acceleration of electrons to relativistic energies.

A new model for plasmapause locations derived from IMAGE RPI and Van Allen Probes data

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate
The outer boundary of the plasmasphere, the plasmapause, is characterized by a sharp electron density gradient that changes under varying space weather conditions.

The electron density at the midpoint of the plasmapause

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The high density plasmasphere in the magnetosphere is often separated from a lower density region outside of the plasmasphere, called the plasmatrough, by a sharp gradient in electron density called the plasmapause.
