A theoretical veri®cation of intensity of plasmaspheric ELF hiss emissions: theory versus GEOS-1 observations
An attempt is made to con®rm the generation mechanism of plasmaspheric ELF hiss emissions observed aboard GEOS-1 satellite in the equatorial region both at small and large wave normal angles by calculating their magnetic ®eld intensities in terms of incoherent Cerenkov radiation mechanism and cyclotron resonance instability mechanism, using appropriate and suitable plasma parameters. The ELF in...
متن کاملAn observation linking the origin of plasmaspheric hiss to discrete chorus emissions.
A long-standing problem in the field of space physics has been the origin of plasmaspheric hiss, a naturally occurring electromagnetic wave in the high-density plasmasphere (roughly within 20,000 kilometers of Earth) that is known to remove the high-energy Van Allen Belt electrons that pose a threat to satellites and astronauts. A recent theory tied the origin of plasmaspheric hiss to a seeming...
متن کاملStatistically measuring the amount of pitch angle scattering that energetic electrons undergo as they drift across the plasmaspheric drainage plume at geosynchronous orbit
Using five spacecraft in geosynchronous orbit, plasmaspheric drainage plumes are located in the dayside magnetosphere and the measured pitch angle anisotropies of radiation belt electrons are compared duskward and dawnward of the plumes. Two hundred twenty-six plume crossings are analyzed. It is found that the radiation belt anisotropy is systematically greater dawnward of plumes (before the el...
متن کاملThe link between a detached subauroral proton arc and a plasmaspheric plume
[1] Observations of detached subauroral proton arcs by the FUV instrument on the IMAGE spacecraft have been recently reported and shown to be produced by ring current ions precipitating in the afternoon local time sector during geomagnetically disturbed periods. Data from June 18, 2001 show a direct link between a subauroral proton arc and a global observation of a plasmaspheric plume by the IM...
