An 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 کاملA 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 کاملAmplification Mechanisms in Liquidity Crises
I describe two amplifications mechanisms that operate during liquidity crises and discuss the scope for central bank policies during crises as well as preventive policies in advance of crises. The first mechanism works through asset prices and balance sheets. A negative shock to the balance sheets of asset-holders causes them to liquidate assets, lowering prices, further deteriorating balance s...
متن کاملTwostream modeling of plasmaspheric refilling
Plasmaspheric refilling on an L = 4 flux tube was studied by using a time-dePendent, hydrodynamic plasmaspheric flow model in which the ion streams from the tWO hemispheres are treated as distinct fluids. In the model the continuity, momentum, and energy equations of a twoion (O + and H+), quasi-neu.tral, currentless plasma are solved along aclosed geomagnetic field line; diffusive quilibrium i...
متن کاملHomeostatic Matching and Nonlinear Amplification at Identified Central Synapses
Here we describe the properties of a synapse in the Drosophila antennal lobe and show how they can explain certain sensory computations in this brain region. The synapse between olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) and projection neurons (PNs) is very strong, reflecting a large number of release sites and high release probability. This is likely one reason why weak ORN odor responses are amplified...
