The HOPE mass spectrometer of the Radiation Belt Storm Probes (RBSP) mission (renamed
the Van Allen Probes) is designed to measure the in situ plasma ion and electron fluxes over …

Solar wind fast streams emanating from solar coronal holes cause recurrent, moderate
intensity geomagnetic activity at Earth. Intense magnetic field regions called Corotating …

Strong enhancements of outer Van Allen belt electrons have been shown to have a clear
dependence on solar wind speed and on the duration of southward interplanetary magnetic …

Resonant diffusion curves for electron cyclotron resonance with field‐aligned
electromagnetic R mode and L mode electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are …

Outer zone radiation belt electrons can undergo gyroresonant interaction with various
magnetospheric wave modes including whistler‐mode chorus outside the plasmasphere …

The first major scientific discovery of the Space Age was that the Earth is enshrouded in
toroids, or belts, of very high-energy magnetically trapped charged particles. Early …

Abstract The Van Allen radiation belts are two regions encircling the Earth in which
energetic charged particles are trapped inside the Earth's magnetic field. Their properties …

Electron acceleration inside the Earth's magnetosphere is required to explain increases in
the∼ MeV radiation belt electron flux during magnetically disturbed periods. Recent studies …

The machine-sensible version of the AE-8 electron model environment was completed in
December 1983. It has been sent to users on the model environment distribution list and is …

We present a brief review of radiation belt electron losses which are vitally important for
controlling the dynamics of the radiation belts. A historical overview of early observations is …
