Statistical Analysis of Hiss Waves in Plasmaspheric Plumes Using Van Allen Probe Observations [PDF]
AbstractPlasmaspheric hiss waves commonly observed in high‐density regions in the Earth's magnetosphere are known to be one of the main contributors to the loss of radiation belt electrons. There has been a lot of effort to investigate the distributions of hiss waves in the plasmasphere, while relatively little attention has been given to those in the ...

Determining the Temporal and Spatial Coherence of Plasmaspheric Hiss Waves in the Magnetosphere [PDF]
AbstractPlasmaspheric hiss is one of the most important plasma waves in the Earth's magnetosphere to contribute to radiation belt dynamics by pitch‐angle scattering energetic electrons via wave‐particle interactions. There is growing evidence that the temporal and spatial variability of wave‐particle interactions are important factors in the ...

Effect of plasma density on diffusion rates due to wave particle interactions with chorus and plasmaspheric hiss: extreme event analysis [PDF]
Wave particle interactions play an important role in controlling the dynamics of the radiation belts. The purpose of this study is to estimate how variations in the plasma density can affect diffusion rates resulting from interactions between chorus ...

Multi‐Parameter Chorus and Plasmaspheric Hiss Wave Models [PDF]
AbstractThe resonant interaction of energetic particles with plasma waves, such as chorus and plasmaspheric hiss waves, plays a direct and crucial role in the acceleration and loss of radiation belt electrons that ultimately affect the dynamics of the radiation belts.

Van Allen Probes observation of plasmaspheric hiss modulated by injected energetic electrons [PDF]
Plasmaspheric hiss was observed by Van Allen Probe B in association with energetic electron injections in the outer plasmasphere. The energy of injected electrons coincides with the minimum resonant energy calculated for the observed hiss wave ...

Evolution of dayside chorus into nightside plasmaspheric hiss [PDF]
Plasmaspheric hiss is an incoherent, broadband, whistler-mode emission that is found primarily in the Earth’s dense plasmasphere and is believed to be largely responsible for the formation of the slot region between the inner and outer radiation belts ...

A Generation Mechanism of Banded Plasmaspheric Hiss
As a unique structure of plasmaspheric hiss emissions, banded hiss waves generally consist of an upper band above ∼200 Hz, a lower band below ∼100 Hz and a power gap in between. However, the generation mechanism of banded hiss remains unclear.

Long Lifetime Hiss Rays in the Disturbed Plasmasphere
Plasmaspheric hiss waves are important to shape the Earth’s electron radiation belt. These waves are commonly envisioned to have a long lifetime which allows them to permeate the global plasmasphere from a spatially restricted source.

Modeling the properties of plasmaspheric hiss: 1. Dependence on chorus wave emission [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that plasmaspheric hiss is formed by the evolution of a portion of chorus waves that are excited in the plasmatrough and propagate into the plasmasphere. Comparison between the statistical spatial distributions of these two emissions in the morning sector during active times from THEMIS over ∼3 years shows that the two ...
