A Comparative Study on the Distributions of Incoherent and Coherent Plasmaspheric Hiss

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
AbstractWe perform a comparative study on the distributions of incoherent and coherent plasmaspheric hiss, based on the Van Allen Probe data. The statistics show that incoherent hiss (∼10–20 pT) is widely distributed in dayside plasmasphere, with peak frequencies below 500 Hz; intense coherent hiss (amplitudes up to 80 pT) occurs in outer plasmasphere ...

Analysis of Chorus Wave Power on Burst‐Mode Timescales During the Van Allen Probes Era

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Interactions between whistler‐mode chorus waves and electrons are a key driver of dynamics in Earth's radiation belts. These global dynamics are often described using Fokker‐Planck diffusion models. Whilst, in many cases, such models effectively describe the large scale changes within the region, they often rely upon spatially and temporally ...

Validation of VERB‐3D Simulation Results in Response to the COSPAR ISWAT Challenge

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract In response to the first long‐term simulation challenge issued by the COSPAR International Space Weather Action Team (ISWAT) G3‐04 team (“Internal Charging Effects and the Relevant Space Environment”), we evaluate the performance of the Versatile Electron Radiation Belt‐3D model by simulating the radiation belt electron dynamics for the entire

Electron scattering by whistler‐mode ELF hiss in plasmaspheric plumes [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2008
Nonadiabatic loss processes of radiation belt energetic electrons include precipitation loss to the atmosphere due to pitch‐angle scattering by various magnetospheric plasma wave modes. Here we consider electron precipitation loss due to pitch‐angle scattering by whistler‐mode ELF hiss in plasmaspheric plumes.

Quasi‐Trapped Zebra Stripes: Radial Transport Driven by Dual‐Pulse Electric Fields

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Energetic electron spectra in Earth's inner radiation belt often exhibit regular stripe‐like features, known as “zebra stripes,” which are typically attributed to the drift motion of stably‐trapped electrons disturbed by electric field perturbations.

Local Generation of High‐Frequency Plasmaspheric Hiss Observed by Van Allen Probes

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
The generation of a high‐frequency plasmaspheric hiss (HFPH) wave observed by Van Allen Probes is studied in this letter for the first time. The wave has a moderate power spectral density (∼10−6 nT2/Hz), with a frequency range extended from 2 to 10 kHz ...

Hiss Wave Evolution During Substorms Based on Van Allen Probes Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Hiss waves frequently occur in the plasmasphere or plumes, playing a key role in energetic electron loss in the Earth's inner magnetosphere. While previous studies have linked hiss wave enhancements in the outer plasmasphere (just inside the plasmapause) to electron injections during substorms, their evolution across various substorm phases ...

Enabling High‐Fidelity Wave‐Particle Interaction Studies: A Novel Filtering for Isolating Whistlers From Spacecraft Noise

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Resolving the mixture of natural plasma waves and persistent spacecraft interference is a fundamental challenge in space physics, as it obstructs the analysis of wave‐particle interactions and energy transport processes. Traditional signal decomposition methods often fail to adequately separate these components due to their time‐varying ...

Machine Learning‐Ready Data Sets for the Analysis and Nowcasting of Atmospheric Radiation at Aviation Altitudes

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Nowcasting and forecasting of the radiation environment in the Earth's lower atmosphere are critical for the safety of aircraft and spacecraft crews and passengers. Currently, this problem is addressed by employing statistical and physics‐based models that take into account particle transport and precipitation.

Triggered Plasmaspheric Hiss: Rising Tone Structures

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractIn this study, a rare hiss event observed by Van Allen Probe is reported and the possible generation is investigated based on wave and plasma measurements. The results suggest that the normal hiss (from 0.05fce to 0.5fce) with dominantly equatorward Poynting fluxes is locally generated by plasma sheet electrons via cyclotron instability.
