TL;DR: In this paper, the authors simulate the behavior of relativistic (976 keV) electrons in the outer radiation belt (3 ≤ L ≤ 7) during the first half of the CRRES mission using a 1d radial diffusion model with losses due to pitch-angle scattering by plasmaspheric hiss expressed through the electron lifetime calculated using the PADIE code.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a set of reasonable worst-case scenarios and first published them as a technical report in 2012 (current version published in 2020) each scenario focused on a space weather environment that could disrupt a particular national infrastructure such as electric power or satellites, thus enabling officials to explore the resilience of that infrastructure against severe space weather through discussions with relevant experts from other parts of government and with the operators of the infrastructure.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reconstruct the electron velocity distribution within magnetic holes and demonstrate that the current at their boundaries is predominantly carried by magnetized thermal electrons, which can effectively modulate the intensity of electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves, and thus the spatial distribution of thermal electron precipitation.

TL;DR: Green et al. as discussed by the authors showed that plasmaspheric hiss is a broadband whistler-mode emission with peak power spectral intensity near a few hundred Hz, which has been shown to be a major scattering agent in the slot region between the inner and outer radiation belts.

TL;DR: In this paper, the phase-space density is set to zero at the outer L* boundary, simulating losses to the magnetopause, using recently published chorus diffusion coefficients for 1.5
