Statistics of whistler mode waves in the outer radiation belt: Cluster STAFF-SA measurements
Oleksiy Agapitov,Oleksiy Agapitov,Anton Artemyev,Anton Artemyev,Vladimir Krasnoselskikh,Yuri V. Khotyaintsev,Didier Mourenas,Hugo Breuillard,Michael A. Balikhin,G. Rolland +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a statistical study of ELF/VLF emissions using wave measurements in the whistler frequency range for 10 years (2001-2010) aboard Cluster spacecraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oblique Whistler-Mode Waves in the Earth’s Inner Magnetosphere: Energy Distribution, Origins, and Role in Radiation Belt Dynamics
Anton Artemyev,Anton Artemyev,Oleksiy Agapitov,Didier Mourenas,Vladimir Krasnoselskikh,Vitalii Shastun,F. S. Mozer +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the statistics of occurrences and intensity of oblique chorus waves in the region of the outer radiation belt, comprised between the plasmapause and geostationary orbit, and discuss how their actual distribution may be explained by a combination of linear and non-linear generation, propagation, and damping processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wave-induced loss of ultra-relativistic electrons in the Van Allen radiation belts
Yuri Shprits,Alexander Drozdov,Maria Spasojevic,Adam Kellerman,Maria Usanova,Mark J. Engebretson,Oleksiy Agapitov,Irina Zhelavskaya,Tero Raita,Harlan E. Spence,Daniel N. Baker,Hui Zhu,Nikita Aseev +12 more
TL;DR: Comparisons between observations and modelling of the evolution of the electron flux and pitch angle show that electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves provide the dominant loss mechanism at ultra-relativistic energies and produce a profound dropout of the ultra- RELATivistic radiation belt fluxes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time domain structures: What and where they are, what they do, and how they are made
F. S. Mozer,Oleksiy Agapitov,Oleksiy Agapitov,A. V. Artemyev,James Drake,Vladimir Krasnoselskikh,Solène Lejosne,Ivan Y. Vasko +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between TDS and auroral particle precipitation was investigated, and the mechanisms for generation of field-aligned electron pitch angle distributions by TDS, the maximum energies of fieldaligned electrons created by the TDS in the absence of whistler mode waves, TDS generation by oblique¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯whistlers and three-wave-parametric decay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic Empirical Chorus Wave Model From Combined Van Allen Probes and Cluster Statistics
Oleksiy Agapitov,Oleksiy Agapitov,Didier Mourenas,Anton Artemyev,F. S. Mozer,George Hospodarsky,John W. Bonnell,Volodya Krasnoselskikh +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesize data from the Van Allen Probes and Cluster spacecraft to provide a new comprehensive chorus wave model in the outer radiation belt, which is used for modeling global acceleration and loss of electrons over the long run in the magnetosphere.
