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,...

We investigate the magnetospheric MHD and energetic electron response to a Storm Sudden Commencement (SSC) and subsequent magnetopause buffeting, focusing on an interval following an SSC event on 25 November 2001. We find that the electron flux signatures observed by LANL, Cluster, and GOES...
