Approximate invariant of electron motion in the field of a whistler propagating along the geomagnetic field

TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamics of high energy electrons in gyroresonance with a quasi-monochromatic circularly polarized whistler mode tracing a geomagnetic field line are studied numerically.

Simulation of electromagnetic signals propagating through magnetoplasma

Kalpana Singh, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: A simulation technique developed to obtain the dynamic spectra of electromagnetic signals propagating through an inhomogeneous magnetoplasma simultaneously explains low dispersion whistlers, nose whistler, precursors and proton whistlers and attempts to explain whistler mode waves observed particularly at low latitude Indian ground stations.

An interpretation of a mysterious 3.0‐ to 4.6‐kHz emission band observed on Voyager 2 near Neptune

TL;DR: In this paper, a whistler mode interpretation is provided for the narrowband signal (f approx. 3 - 4.6 kHz, Delta f approx. 200 - 800 Hz) detected by the plasma wave instrument on Voyager 2 during its encounter with Neptune, and the source location is estimated to be near the magnetic equator at L approx. 4 and dipole longitude of 111 deg W (260 deg W longitude in Neptune coordinate system).

VLF and LF Emissions at Auroral Latitudes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors classify electromagnetic noise at very low and low frequencies generated in the ionosphere or the magnetosphere is called VLF and LF emission, which can all be characterized as either discrete noise, which has a clear structure in the spectrogram, or hiss which has no or very little structure and so resembles white noise.

V.L.F. observations on Ariel III: a preliminary report

TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary analysis of 36 orbits (quick-look data) was performed to determine the configuration of the wave-field above the ionosphere due to the GBR (Rugby) transmission at 16 kHz.

The boundary of the geomagnetic field

TL;DR: In this article, the geomagnetic field boundary was determined using data obtained from a magnetometer on the explorer Explorer XI and the magnetometer was used to measure the magnetic field boundary.

Stimulated Emission of Radiation by Relativistic Electrons in a Magnetic Field

TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic Schroedinger equation of an electron moving perpendicularly to a magnetic field H, can be reduced to the equation of the harmonic oscillator, and formulas were derived by means of the Boltzman transfer equation, taking into account the dependence of the electron mass on kinetic energy.

High-latitude geophysical studies with satellite Injun 3: 3. Precipitation of electrons into the atmosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the precipitation of electrons with energy Ee ≥ 40 kev into the atmosphere over North America is analyzed using three directional Geiger tubes on the magnetically oriented satellite Injun 3.

Scattering of energetic trapped electrons by very‐low‐frequency waves

TL;DR: In this article, the role of VLF waves in precipitating fast electrons is studied and it is found that, by Doppler-shifting whistler frequencies (1−10 kc/s) up to the local Larmor frequency, a resonant interaction of the type proposed by Dragt and Wentzel (for interaction of protons with hydromagnetic waves) can cause the mirror points of the electrons to move randomly.
