Abstract Understanding and forecasting extreme radiation belt electron fluxes has been a major goal in space weather since their discovery in 1958. In this study, by combining electron flux data from multiple satellite missions in different orbits, including Van Allen Probes, Electron Losses and Fields Investigation, and Colorado Inner Radiation Belt ...

The structure of field line resonances in a dipole magnetosphere with moving plasma [PDF]
A theoretical model of field line resonance in the magnetosphere with a dipole magnetic field and moving plasma was constructed. Motion of medium was simulated by its azimuthal rotation.

The Global Propagation of Hiss Waves Originating From Dynamic Plasmaspheric Plume
Abstract Hiss waves play a critical role in shaping Earth's radiation belts and mediating magnetosphere‐ionosphere energy transfer. Intense hiss emissions are frequently generated within dynamic plasmaspheric plumes through linear and nonlinear wave‐particle interactions.

An alternative interpretation of Jupiter's “plasmapause”
It has recently been suggested that Io is an important source of ions for the plasma detected by Pioneer 10 in the inner magnetosphere of Jupiter. Assuming this to be true, we show that near the orbit of Io the central collector of the Pioneer‐10 plasma instrument could detect only inwardly diffusing ions created at a radial distance greater than that ...

A Personal Voyage Among Earth and Space Physics Disciplines
Abstract I have organized my thoughts in an autobiographical way in relation to the several distinct phases of my career encompassing Earth and space physics. I discuss atmospheric and space physics topics of interest to me in an international context, and I emphasize the value of community activities and international conferences for the interchange ...

Abstract Stable auroral red (SAR) arcs are luminous subauroral emissions produced by the collisional excitation of oxygen atoms during geomagnetically active times. While traditionally attributed to inner magnetospheric electron heating, recent observations and simulations challenge the exclusivity of this mechanism.

Chorus Wave–Driven Electron Dynamics in the Van Allen Belts: From Coherence to Diffusion
Abstract The Van Allen radiation belts contain relativistic electrons trapped by Earth's magnetic field, posing serious risks to spacecraft. Chorus waves are known to accelerate these electrons via resonant interactions, but these interactions are inherently nonlinear and coherent.

Competing source and loss mechanisms due to wave-particle interactions in Earth’s outer radiation belt during the 30 September to 3 October 2012 geomagnetic storm [PDF]
Drastic variations of Earth’s outer radiation belt electrons ultimately result from various competing source, loss, and transport processes, to which wave-particle interactions are critically important.

Nonlinear Electron Interactions With Intense VLF Waves From Transmitters
Abstract The impact on electron lifetimes of nonlinear interactions with the most intense very low frequency (VLF) waves from transmitters has hitherto been neglected in radiation belt codes. Here, we show the presence of a small population of intense wave packets, originating from ground‐based VLF transmitters and reaching 10 mV/m around the magnetic ...
