Craig Kletzing,William S. Kurth,Mario H. Acuña,Robert J. MacDowall,Roy B. Torbert,T. F. Averkamp,D. Bodet,Scott R. Bounds,M. Chutter,John E. P. Connerney,D. Crawford,J. S. Dolan,R. T. Dvorsky,George Hospodarsky,J. Howard,Vania K. Jordanova,R. A. Johnson,D. L. Kirchner,B. T. Mokrzycki,G. Needell,J. Odom,D. Mark,R. F. Pfaff,J. R. Phillips,Chris Piker,S. L. Remington,Douglas E. Rowland,Ondrej Santolik,R. Schnurr,D. Sheppard,Charles W. Smith,Richard M. Thorne,J. Tyler +32 more
TL;DR: The Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) investigation on the NASA Radiation Belt Storm Probes (now named the Van Allen Probes) mission provides key wave and very low frequency magnetic field measurements to understand radiation belt acceleration, loss, and transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid local acceleration of relativistic radiation-belt electrons by magnetospheric chorus
Richard M. Thorne,Wen Li,Binbin Ni,Qianli Ma,Jacob Bortnik,Lunjin Chen,Daniel N. Baker,Harlan E. Spence,Geoffrey D. Reeves,Michael G. Henderson,Craig Kletzing,William S. Kurth,George Hospodarsky,J. B. Blake,Joseph F. Fennell,Seth G. Claudepierre,Shrikanth Kanekal +16 more
TL;DR: High-resolution electron observations obtained during the 9 October storm are reported and chorus scattering explains the temporal evolution of both the energy and angular distribution of the observed relativistic electron flux increase, and detailed modelling demonstrates the remarkable efficiency of wave acceleration in the Earth's outer radiation belt.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron Acceleration in the Heart of the Van Allen Radiation Belts
Geoffrey D. Reeves,Harlan E. Spence,Michael G. Henderson,Steven K. Morley,R. H. W. Friedel,Herbert O. Funsten,Daniel N. Baker,Shrikanth Kanekal,J. B. Blake,J. F. Fennell,Seth G. Claudepierre,Richard M. Thorne,Drew Turner,Craig Kletzing,William S. Kurth,Brian A. Larsen,J. T. Niehof +16 more
TL;DR: Measurements from NASA’s Van Allen Radiation Belt Storm Probes are reported that clearly distinguish between the two types of acceleration, and the observed radial profiles of phase space density are characteristic of local acceleration in the heart of the radiation belts and are inconsistent with a predominantly radial acceleration process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Small scale alfvénic structure in the aurora
K. Stasiewicz,P. Bellan,Christopher C. Chaston,Craig Kletzing,Robert L. Lysak,J. Maggs,O. A. Pokhotelov,Charles Seyler,Padma Kant Shukla,Lennart Stenflo,Anatoly V. Streltsov,Jan-Erik Wahlund +11 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of dispersive Alfven waves in space and laboratory plasmas is presented in this article, where the authors show how the inclusion of ion gyroradius, parallel electron inertia, and finite frequency effects modify the Alfven wave properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron densities inferred from plasma wave spectra obtained by the Waves instrument on Van Allen Probes.
William S. Kurth,S. De Pascuale,Jeremy Faden,Craig Kletzing,George Hospodarsky,Scott Thaller,John R. Wygant +6 more
TL;DR: The expected accuracy of ne and issues in the interpretation of the electrostatic wave spectrum are described and described.
