An ISEE/Whistler model of equatorial electron density in the magnetosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical model of equatorial electron density in the magnetosphere covering the L range 2.25-8.9043 was presented for application to the local time interval 00-15 MLT, and a way to extend the model to the 15-24 MLT period is presented.

Turbulent loss of ring-current protons.

TL;DR: Ring current protons turbulent diffusion in magnetospheric plasmapause, considering ion cyclotron wave lifetime and geomagnetic storms was studied in this article, where the authors considered the effect of magnetic storms.

A semiempirical model of large‐scale magnetospheric electric fields

TL;DR: In this paper, a semiempirical analytic formula for large-scale electric magnetospheric fields is developed that are valid within the inner magnetosphere as well as within the ionosphere.

Relativistic electron precipitation during magnetic storm main phase

TL;DR: Relativistic electron precipitation during magnetic storms, showing cyclotron resonances with electromagnetic ion Cyclotron waves as mentioned in this paper, was used to detect magnetic storms in magnetic fields.

Recent satellite measurements of the morphology and dynamics of the plasmasphere

TL;DR: The morphology and dynamics of the plasmasphere vary with local time and with geomagnetic conditions as mentioned in this paper, and can be understood in terms of a time-varying convection electric-field model of the magnetosphere.

Whistler studies of the plasmapause in the magnetosphere: 1. Temporal variations in the position of the knee and some evidence on plasma motions near the knee

TL;DR: The position of the knee in the density of magnetospheric ionization was measured on a high time-resolution basis using whistlers recorded during July and part of August 1963 as discussed by the authors.

Formation of plasmapause, or magnetospheric plasma knee, by the combined action of magnetospheric convection and plasma escape from the tail

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetic lines of force in the magnetosphere are separated into two groups: those that travel across the tail during the convective motion and those that are never transported to the tail.

Bulk motion of the magnetosphere

TL;DR: In this article, an upper atmosphere geophysical measurements are surveyed to determine to what extent the available data support the concept of bulk motion of the magnetosphere (convection) and the associated electric field.

A study of the influence of magnetic activity on the location of the plasmapause as measured by OGO 5

TL;DR: Magnetic activity effect on magnetospheric plasmapause position, measuring ion concentrations as function of local time from OGO 5 observations as mentioned in this paper, was used to measure ion concentrations in the magnetosphere.
