Variability of Quasilinear Diffusion Coefficients for Plasmaspheric Hiss [PDF]
In the outer radiation belt, the acceleration and loss of high‐energy electrons is largely controlled by wave‐particle interactions. Quasilinear diffusion coefficients are an efficient way to capture the small‐scale physics of wave‐particle interactions ...

A theoretical verification of intensity of plasmaspheric ELF hiss emissions: theory versus GEOS-1 observations [PDF]
An attempt is made to confirm the generation mechanism of plasmaspheric ELF hiss emissions observed aboard GEOS-1 satellite in the equatorial region both at small and large wave normal angles by calculating their magnetic field intensities in terms of

Simulation study on parametric dependence of whistler-mode hiss generation in the plasmasphere
We conduct electromagnetic particle simulations to examine the applicability of nonlinear wave growth theory to the generation process of plasmaspheric hiss. We firstly vary the gradient of the background magnetic field from a realistic model to a rather
