We present Van Allen Probes observations of modulations in the flux of very energetic electrons up to a few MeV and protons between 1200 and 1400 UT on 19 February 2014. During this event the spacecraft were in the dayside magnetosphere at L⋆≈5.5. The modulations extended across a wide range of...

The adiabatic drift-resonant interaction between relativistic, equatorially mirroring electrons and narrowband, Pc 5 ultra low frequency (ULF) waves in the magnetosphere is investigated using a time-dependent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave model. Attention is focused on the effect of a ULF wave...

Ren, Jie, Zong, Qui-Gang, Rankin, Robert, Zhou, Xuzhi, Wang, Y. F.
ULF waves can accelerate/decelerate the charged particles including the ring current ions via drift-bounce resonance, which play an important role in the dynamics of ring current during storm times. This study compares the different behaviors of oxygen ions (10.5–35.1 keV) and protons (0.3–12.3...

Magnetospheric convection and magnetopause shadowing effects in ULF wave‐driven energetic electron transport

Murphy, Kyle, Degeling, Alex W., Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Johnathan
Magnetospheric radiation belt electron transport in the presence of ULF waves and a convection electric field is investigated using a model that includes a nightside plasma sheet source and electron losses by magnetopause shadowing. Narrow-band ULF waves launched from a prescribed dayside...
