The distribution of plasmaspheric hiss wave power with respect to plasmapause location

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
In this work, Van Allen Probes data are used to derive terrestrial plasmaspheric hiss wave power distributions organized by (1) distance away from the plasmapause and (2) plasmapause distance from Earth.

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Child Safety Seats and Seat Belts in Protecting Children from Injury [PDF]

Young children are required to use child safety seats, and the age threshold at which children can legally graduate to seat belts has steadily increased.

Radiation Belts and Trapped Particles

This tutorial introduces students to Earth's radiation belts, also known as the Van Allen Belts after their discoverer. Topics include the structure of the radiation belts and the currents of particles trapped in Earth's magnetic fields, their properties,

Earths Radiation Belts with Safe Zone Orbit

, 2004
Spacecraft orbiting in the Safe Zone, between two and three Earth radii, can be subjected to high levels of harmful radiation as the radiation belts fluctuate in response to space weather events.

Intermittency of Ultrarelativistic Charged-particle Trajectories in Jupiter’s Radiation Belts

The Astrophysical Journal
In our solar system, Jupiter possesses the strongest magnetosphere, with radiation belts filled with ultrarelativistic charged particles. These particles are trapped along Jupiter’s closed magnetic field lines, where they undergo gyration, bounce, and ...

Measurements of the radiation belts from Mir and STRV 1994-1997

, 1997
Simple environment monitors were launched in 1994; one was placed in geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) onboard STRV-1b while the second was installed externally on Mir in LEO. GTO covers the equatorial regime of inner and outer radiation belts well. Mir

Statistical modelling of the variability of the electron radiation belts for long-term environment specification

Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate
Specifying the electron radiation belts environment is crucial to enable satellite manufacturers and designers to adequately account for its harsh conditions, thereby mitigating risks of unforeseen malfunctions, data loss, and catastrophic failures that ...

Chorus wave power at the strong diffusion limit overcomes electron losses due to strong diffusion

Nature Communications
Earth’s radiation belts consist of high-energy charged particles trapped by Earth’s magnetic field. Strong pitch angle diffusion of electrons caused by wave-particle interaction in Earth’s radiation belts has primarily been considered as a loss process ...
