Global Validation of the Data‐Assimilative VERB‐3D Code for the Radiation Belts

open access: yesSpace Weather
Electrons within Earth's radiation belts exhibit large variability in space and time during geomagnetic storms, which could potentially damage satellites and harm astronauts in space.

Explaining the dynamics of the sub-relativistic electron third belt in the Earth’s radiation belts by using medium Earth orbit satellite observations

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics
The Earth’s electron radiation belts typically exhibit a two-belt structure. However, observations from the Van Allen Probes revealed the existence of a three-belt structure.

Resonant Scattering of Radiation Belt Electrons by Off‐Equatorial Magnetosonic Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Fast magnetosonic (MS) waves are commonly regarded as electromagnetic waves that are characteristically confined within ±3° of the geomagnetic equator. We report two typical off‐equatorial MS events observed by Van Allen Probes, that is, the 8 May 2014 ...

The inverse compton effect in the electrons of the Van Allen radiation belt

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 1970
A first estimate of the energy that reaches the Earth's surface and is produced by the inverse Compton effect between the electrons in the Van Allen belt and the solar flux was made. Since in the belt there are electrons with energies between 0.5 and 7 MeV, it was possible to use the Klein-Nishina formula in an approximate form and estimate the energy ...

Analysis of reentry into the White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) for the LifeSat mission [PDF]

open access: yes
This study investigates the reentry of the LifeSat vehicles into the WSMR. The LifeSat mission consists of two reusable reentry satellites, each carrying a removable payload module, which scientists will use to study long-term effects of microgravity ...

Orbit to orbit transportation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Orbital transfer vehicle propulsion options for SPS include both chemical (COTV) and electrical (EOTV) options. The proposed EOTV construction method is similar to that of the SPS and, by the addition of a transmitting antenna, may serve as a ...

Anthropogenic Space Weather

open access: yes, 2017
Anthropogenic effects on the space environment started in the late 19th century and reached their peak in the 1960s when high-altitude nuclear explosions were carried out by the USA and the Soviet Union.
