Rankin, Robert , Degeling, Alex W., Watt, Clare E.
We introduce a new methodology that allows the construction of wave frequency distributions due to growing incoherent whistler-mode waves in the magnetosphere. The technique combines the equations of geometric optics (i.e., raytracing) with the equation of transfer of radiation in an anisotropic...

Deformation and evolution of solar wind discontinuities through their interactions with the Earth's bow shock
Download2009
Kabin, Konstantin, Keika, Kunihiro, Rankin, Robert, Carr, C. M., Carlson, C. W., Glassmeier, Karl-Heinz, Magnes, Werner, Lucek, Elizabeth, McFadden, J. P., Dandouras, Iannis, Auster, H. U., Sibeck, D. G., Fornacon, K.-H., Angelopoulos, Vassilis, Baumjohann, W., Nakamura, Rumi
The present study examines the interaction of solar wind discontinuities with the Earth's bow shock, using multipoint observations in the magnetosheath by Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions During Substorms (THEMIS), Cluster, and Double Star TC1. We focus on the deformation and...

Development of dynamic column breakthrough for multicomponent adsorption equilibrium and diffusion
DownloadFall 2022
Pressure and temperature swing adsorption processes are increasingly being designed and optimized computationally. The reliability of these predictions are highly dependent on the quality of the experimental equilibrium and kinetic data used in these simulations. Consistent experimental...

Increasing demand for energy in the world has made industries to look for economically efficient methods to produce energy. One possible approach is to increase natural gas productions, due to its cleanliness and lower price. However, energy consumption of the cryogenic processes is high in...

Athabasca Bitumen and other heavy hydrocarbon resources are high-mean-molar-mass and structured organic materials with complex phase behaviors at the nano- and micro- meter length scales. Diffusion of light hydrocarbons, and non-hydrocarbons in these resources is of significant interest as new...

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) measures the diffusion (i.e. random molecular motion) of water. Since the motion of water is inhibited by cellular membranes, dMRI provides insight into the microstructural characteristics of the tissue. However, distinguishing between small anatomical...

Structural brain changes occur in a complex manner throughout life, and understanding healthy brain development is crucial for the study of brain abnormalities in various conditions. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an advanced magnetic resonance imaging technique that provides information about...

Rankin, Robert, Tikhonchuk, Vladimir T., Samson, John C.
Dispersive effects in field line resonances (FLRs) are discussed in the context of potential structures, parallel currents, and auroral density cavities observed by the FAST satellite. Our model includes the Earth's dipole magnetic field, and accounts for electron inertia, electron thermal...
