Which Parameter Controls Ring Current Electron Dynamics
Predicting the electron population of Earth’s ring current during geomagnetic storms still remains a challenging task. In this work, we investigate the sensitivity of 10 keV ring current electrons to different driving processes, parameterised by the Kp ...

Driving ionospheric outflows and magnetospheric O+ energy density with Alfvén waves
We show how dispersive Alfvén waves observed in the inner magnetosphere during geomagnetic storms can extract O+ ions from the topside ionosphere and accelerate these ions to energies exceeding 50 keV in the equatorial plane.

The terrestrial ring current decays dominantly by charge exchange but Coulomb collisions and wave-particle interactions are also important processes in the overall decay and produce interesting thermal plasma effects. Charge exchange results in energetic neutral atom precipitation over a broad region; Coulomb collisions and wave-particle interactions ...

Evolutions of equatorial ring current ions during a magnetic storm
In this paper, we present evolutions of the phase space density (PSD) spectra of ring current (RC) ions based on observations made by Van Allen Probe B during a geomagnetic storm on 23–24 August 2016.

Charge exchange contribution to the decay of the ring current, measured by energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) [PDF]
In this paper we calculate the contribution of charge exchange to the decay of the ring current. Past works have suggested that charge exchange of ring current protons is primarily responsible for the decay of the ring current during the late recovery ...

Radial and local time structure of the Saturnian ring current, revealed by Cassini
We analyze particle and magnetic field data obtained between July 2004 and December 2013 in the equatorial magnetosphere of Saturn, by the Cassini spacecraft.

Much of what we know about the solar wind’s interaction with the Earth’s magnetosphere has been gained from isolated in-situ measurements by single or multiple spacecraft.

Ring currents in azulene [PDF]
We propose a self consistent polarisable ion tight binding theory for the study of push–pull processes in aromatic molecules. We find that the method quantitatively reproduces ab initio calculations of dipole moments and polarisability. We apply the scheme in a simulation which solves the time dependent Schrodinger equation to follow the relaxation of ...

Space Weather Effects Produced by the Ring Current Particles
One of the definitions of space weather describes it as the time-varying space environment that may be hazardous to technological systems in space and/or on the ground and/or endanger human health or life.
