Charged particle behavior in the growth and damping stages of ultralow frequency waves: Theory and Van Allen Probes observations
Download2016
Wygant, John R., Zong, Qui-Gang, Kletzing, Craig A., Blake, J. Bernard, Kivelson, Margaret G., Zhou, Xuzhi, Chen, Xing-Ran, Rankin, Robert, Wang, Zi-Han
Ultralow frequency (ULF) electromagnetic waves in Earth's magnetosphere can accelerate charged particles via a process called drift resonance. In the conventional drift resonance theory, a default assumption is that the wave growth rate is time independent, positive, and extremely small. However,...
