Enhanced Radiation Exposure of Airline Crew and Passengers During the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm
Abstract Enhanced radiation at aviation altitudes is a concern for flight crew and passengers. During space weather events, solar flares and coronal mass ejection (CME) driven shocks are sources of energetic particles that can reach Earth's near‐space environment and interact with its magnetic field and atmosphere.

Identification of Locally Generated Plasmaspheric Hiss
In this study, we statistically analyze the wave properties of plasmaspheric hiss using data from the Van Allen Probes. The magnetic power spectral densities of hiss waves exhibit dependence on magnetic local time, geomagnetic activity, and the L‐shell ...

LHR band emissions at mid-latitude and their relationship to ionospheric ELF hiss and relativistic electrons [PDF]
LHR band emissions observed at mid-latitude were investigated using data from the EXOS-C (Ohzora) satellite. A typical feature of the LHR band emissions is a continuous banded structure without burst-like and cut-off features whose center frequency ...

Abstract Earth's outer radiation belt electron flux is highly variable and can be enhanced by over an order of magnitude over timescales less than one day, as observed during the October 2012 storm. Previous studies of this storm (e.g., Reeves et al., 2013, https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1237743) have invoked local acceleration to explain this ...

Frequency‐Drifting Plasmaspheric Hiss: A Statistical Study From the Van Allen Probes Data
Plasmaspheric hiss, a whistler‐mode emission confined in the high‐density plasmasphere, is of great interest to the space community attributed to its important role in inner magnetospheric dynamics.

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.

Whistler mode wave growth and propagation in the prenoon magnetosphere [PDF]
Pitch-angle scattering of electrons can limit the stably trapped particle flux in the magnetosphere and precipitate energetic electrons into the ionosphere. Whistler-mode waves generated by a temperature anisotropy can mediate this pitch-angle scattering

A Wave Model and Diffusion Coefficients for Plasmaspheric Hiss Parameterized by Plasmapause Location
Abstract The scattering of electrons via plasmaspheric hiss whistler‐mode plasma waves has profound consequences for the dynamics of electrons in the inner terrestrial magnetosphere, including the radiation belts. Consequently, simulations of inner magnetospheric electron dynamics incorporate hiss wave models, though these models are ...

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 ...
