Unraveling the Mystery of Earth's Space Radiation Environment Loss Processes: Meeting Report
Abstract On 10 June and 27 September 2024, two workshops were held at GFZ Potsdam under the umbrella of the Geo. X Research Network of Geosciences to discuss the unresolved question of the overestimation and lack of scattering of modeled ring current electrons during geomagnetic storms.

Dependence of Plasmaspheric Hiss Power on ωpe/Ωce
Plasmaspheric hiss waves play a key role in scattering energetic electrons and are often modeled in the inner magnetosphere using empirical hiss power maps parameterized by L shell.

Statistics of whistler mode waves in the outer radiation belt: Cluster STAFF-SA measurements [PDF]
International audience[1] ELF/VLF waves play a crucial role in the dynamics of the radiation belts and are partly responsible for the main losses and the acceleration of energetic electrons.

Abstract Many numerical models have been built to uncover the physical mechanisms governing radiation belt dynamics and enable real‐time forecasting. The diffusion coefficient, as a critical input for these models, is usually obtained through linear interpolation from precomputed diffusion coefficient libraries.

Abstract The campaign of Automated Radiation Measurements for Aerospace Safety (ARMAS) has revealed that relativistic electron precipitation (REP) from the radiation belts can significantly enhance the radiation environment at aviation altitudes, in addition to the well‐known sources of galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles.

A case study of electron precipitation fluxes due to plasmaspheric hiss [PDF]
We find that during a large geomagnetic storm in October 2011 the trapped fluxes of >30, >100, and >300 keV outer radiation belt electrons were enhanced at L=3-4 during the storm main phase.

The parameterization of wave-particle interactions in the Outer Radiation Belt [PDF]
We explore the use of mean-value empirical wave models in diffusion models of the Outer Radiation Belt. We show that magnetospheric wave power is not normally-distributed in time and that geomagnetic activity does not provide a deterministic proxy for ...

Analysis of plasmaspheric hiss wave amplitudes inferred from low‐altitude POES electron data: Validation with conjunctive Van Allen Probes observations [PDF]
AbstractPlasmaspheric hiss plays an important role in controlling the overall structure and dynamics of the Earth's radiation belts. The interaction of plasmaspheric hiss with radiation belt electrons is commonly evaluated using diffusion codes, which rely on statistical models of wave observations that may not accurately reproduce the instantaneous ...

Occurrence Rates and Variability of Whistler‐Mode Waves in the Plasma Trough
Abstract Numerical models of energetic electron behavior in the outer radiation belt require descriptions of the wave‐particle interactions across the inner magnetosphere. Quasilinear diffusion coefficients describe gyro‐resonant wave‐particle interactions over large time‐ and length‐scales but these must be constrained by observations to construct ...

Plasmaspheric hiss plays an important role in the electron precipitation and the slot formation in radiation belts. Recent studies show the whistler‐mode waves can be guided in the density irregularities, performing parallel propagation.
