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 کاملMultistation observations of ELF/VLF whistler mode chorus
[1] An array of seven ELF/VLF receivers in Alaska is utilized for direction finding and determination of ionospheric exit point of whistler mode chorus waves from the Earth’s magnetosphere. Each receiver records both orthogonal horizontal magnetic components of the chorus waves. All sites use GPS-synchronized sampling, allowing for the localization of ionospheric exit points utilizing both arri...
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 کاملUnique concurrent observations of whistler mode hiss, chorus, and triggered emissions
We present a unique 2 h ground-based observation of concurrent magnetospheric hiss, chorus, VLF triggered emissions as well as ELF/VLF signals generated locally by the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility. Eccentricity of observed wave polarization is used as a criteria to identify magnetospheric emissions and estimate their ionospheric exit points. The observations o...
متن کاملWhistler-Langmuir oscillitons and their relation to auroral hiss
A new type of oscilliton (soliton with superimposed spatial oscillations) is described which arises in plasmas if the electron cyclotron frequency e is larger than the electron plasma frequency ωe, which is a typical situation for auroral regions in planetary magnetospheres. Both highfrequency modes of concern, the Langmuir and the whistler wave, are completely decoupled if they propagate para...
