Competing source and loss mechanisms due to wave-particle interactions in Earth’s outer radiation belt during the 30 September to 3 October 2012 geomagnetic storm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Drastic variations of Earth’s outer radiation belt electrons ultimately result from various competing source, loss, and transport processes, to which wave-particle interactions are critically important.

Reconstruction of the Radiation Belts for Solar Cycles 17–24 (1933–2017)

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2021
We present a reconstruction of the dynamics of the radiation belts from solar cycles 17 to 24 which allows us to study how radiation belt activity has varied between the different solar cycles.

Science Goals and Overview of the Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP) Energetic Particle, Composition, and Thermal Plasma (ECT) Suite on NASA’s Van Allen Probes Mission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP)-Energetic Particle, Composition, and Thermal Plasma (ECT) suite contains an innovative complement of particle instruments to ensure the highest quality measurements ever made in the inner magnetosphere and radiation

Prompt energization of relativistic and highly relativistic electrons during a substorm interval: Van Allen Probes observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
On 17 March 2013, a large magnetic storm significantly depleted the multi-MeV radiation belt. We present multi-instrument observations from the Van Allen Probes spacecraft Radiation Belt Storm Probe A and Radiation Belt Storm Probe B at ~6 Re in the ...

Event-specific chorus wave and electron seed population models in DREAM3D using the Van Allen Probes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The DREAM3D diffusion model is applied to Van Allen Probes observations of the fast dropout and strong enhancement of MeV electrons during the October 2012 double-dip storm. We show that in order to explain the very different behavior in the two dips,

Simultaneous Observations of EMIC‐Induced Drifting Electron Holes (EDEHs) in the Earth's Radiation Belt by the Arase Satellite, Van Allen Probes, and THEMIS

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
We present an observation of rapid flux depressions in relativistic electrons, which is referred to as “EMIC‐induced drifting electron holes (EDEHs).” The Arase, Van Allen Probes, and THEMIS detected simultaneously electron flux fluctuations.

An event of extreme relativistic and ultra-relativistic electron enhancements following the arrival of consecutive corotating interaction regions: Coordinated observations by Van Allen Probes, Arase, THEMIS and Galileo satellites

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
During July to October of 2019, a sequence of isolated Corotating Interaction Regions (CIRs) impacted the magnetosphere, for four consecutive solar rotations, without any interposed Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections.

Near-Earth injection of MeV electrons associated with intense dipolarization electric fields: Van Allen Probes observations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Substorms generally inject tens to hundreds of keV electrons, but intense substorm electric fields have been shown to inject MeV electrons as well. An intriguing question is whether such MeVelectron injections can populate the outer radiation belt.

The 600 keV electron injections in the Earth’s outer radiation belt: A statistical study

open access: yesEarth 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 ...

Intense duskside lower band chorus waves observed by Van Allen Probes: Generation and potential acceleration effect on radiation belt electrons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Local acceleration driven by whistler mode chorus waves largely accounts for the enhancement of radiation belt relativistic electron fluxes, whose favored region is usually considered to be the plasmatrough with magnetic local time approximately from ...
