Fluxgate magnetometers are an essential tool for solar-terrestrial research and monitoring or forecasting space weather. They provide high precision measurements of the Earth’s magnetic fields and can be used to infer the currents that transport energy and momentum through the magnetosphere and...

Tikhonchuk, V. T., Voronkov, I., Samson, J. C., Rankin, Robert
A model is presented that describes the excitation of density perturbations and parallel electric fields by standing shear Alfven waves on dipole fields in Earth's magnetosphere. The model includes the effects of electron inertia and gyro-kinetic dispersion, accounting for field-aligned...

Langmuir amplitude modulations and harmonic waves, generated by solar wind electron beams, are commonly observed in type III solar radio bursts. Various mechanisms have been proposed for the origin of these waves, but there is still ongoing debate on how the observation of continuous type III...

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,...

Markle-Reid, M., Kingston, D., Browne, G., Grdisa, V.
Introduction: Integration has been advanced as a strategy for the delivery of a number of human services that have traditionally been delivered by autonomous agencies with independent processes and funding sources. However, measurement of the dimensions of integration has been hampered by...

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 Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Methods for the Identification and Quantification of Acylcarnitines in Biological Samples
DownloadFall 2012
The field of metabolomics follows the Greek premise where metabolic changes are believed to be indicative of disease. Acylcarnitines, for example, can be dysregulated in the presence of various diseases including genetic metabolic disorders and multiple sclerosis. Liquid chromatography mass...
