Oscillations of the Outer Boundary of the Outer Radiation Belt During Sawtooth Oscillations [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2006 We report three sawtooth oscillation events observed at geosynchronous orbit where we find quasi-periodic (every 2-3 hours) sudden flux increases followed by slow flux decreases at the energy levels of ˜50-400 keV.

The 600 keV electron injections in the Earth’s outer radiation belt: A statistical study
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2022 Relativistic electron injections are one of the mechanisms of relativistic (≥0.5 MeV) electron enhancements in the Earth’s outer radiation belt. In this study, we present a statistical observation of 600 keV electron injections in the outer radiation ...

The Chandra X-Ray Observatory's Radiation Environment and the AP-8/AE-8 Model
, 2000 The Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) was launched on July 23, 1999 and reached its final orbit on August 7, 1999. The CXO is in a highly elliptical orbit, approximately 140,000 km x 10,000 km, and has a period of approximately 63.5 hours (~ 2.65 days). It
