Ionospheric electron heating by resonant standing shear Alfvén waves in Earth's magnetosphere is investigated. It is demonstrated that in field line resonances (FLRs), electron heating by Alfvén waves produces ionization and large changes in the ionospheric Pedersen conductivity. This leads to a...

Kabin, Konstantin, Liu, Wenlong, Rankin, Robert, Angelopoulos, Vassilis, Glassmeier, Karl-Heinz, Li, X., Sarris, T. E., Bonnell, John, Talaat, Elsayed R.
We present a case study of Field Line Resonances (FLRs) in the dayside magnetosphere, observed in both electric and magnetic field components at multiple L-shells near the equator. The event measured by the five THEMIS probes and the nearby GOES and Geotail satellites provides a unique...
