Laboratory Observations of Wave-Induced Radial Transport within an ''Artificial Radiation Belt''
Wave-induced radial transport of energetic electrons has been observed in a laboratory terrella. In the experiment, electron-cyclotron-resonance heating (ECRH) is used to create a localized population of trapped energetic electrons (1 keV < Eh < 50 keV) within a low-density discharge which we refer to as an "artificial radiation belt." As the,intensity of the radiation belt increases, quasiperi...
متن کاملAnalytic expressions for ULF wave radiation belt radial diffusion coefficients
We present analytic expressions for ULF wave-derived radiation belt radial diffusion coefficients, as a function of L and Kp, which can easily be incorporated into global radiation belt transport models. The diffusion coefficients are derived from statistical representations of ULF wave power, electric field power mapped from ground magnetometer data, and compressional magnetic field power from...
متن کاملLaboratory Modelling of the Earth Radiation Belt
Method of the laboratory modelling of the Earth radiation belt is presented. Method can be used for the estimation of consequences of global energetic and communication projects realizations. The radiation belt of the Earth is the inner part of the magnetosphere, in which the geomagnetic field hold charged particles with kinetic energy from 10 KeV to 100 MeV. This belt play the essential role f...
متن کاملEnhanced radial transport and energization of radiation belt electrons due to drift orbit bifurcations
[1]Relativistic electron intensities in Earth's outer radiation belt can vary by multiple orders of magnitude on the time scales ranging from minutes to days. One fundamental process contributing to dynamic variability of radiation belt intensities is the radial transport of relativistic electrons across their drift shells. In this paper we analyze the properties of three-dimensional radial tra...
متن کاملVerification of SpacePy’s radial diffusion radiation belt model
Model verification, or the process of ensuring that the prescribed equations are properly solved, is a necessary step in code development. Careful, quantitative verification guides users when selecting grid resolution and time step and gives confidence to code developers that existing code is properly instituted. This work introduces the RadBelt radiation belt model, a new, open-source version ...
