Ducted propagation of chorus waves: Cluster observations
Ducted propagation of whistler waves in the terrestrial magnetosphere-ionosphere system was discussed and studied long before the first in-situ spacecraft measurements. While a number of implicit examples of the existence of ducted propagation have been found, direct observation of ducts has been hampered by the low sampling rates of measurements of the plasma density. The present paper is base...
متن کاملEstimation of Source Location Using Curvature Analysis
A quadratic surface can be fitted to potential-field data within 3×3 windows, which allow us to calculate curvature attributes from its coefficients. Phillips (2007) derived an equation depending on the most negative curvature to obtain the depth and structural index of isolated sources from peak values of special functions. They divided the special functions into two categories: Model-specific...
متن کاملMultistation observations of ELF/VLF whistler mode chorus
[1] An array of seven ELF/VLF receivers in Alaska is utilized for direction finding and determination of ionospheric exit point of whistler mode chorus waves from the Earth’s magnetosphere. Each receiver records both orthogonal horizontal magnetic components of the chorus waves. All sites use GPS-synchronized sampling, allowing for the localization of ionospheric exit points utilizing both arri...
متن کاملWhistler anisotropy instabilities as the source of banded chorus: Van Allen Probes observations and particle-in-cell simulations
Magnetospheric banded chorus is enhanced whistler waves with frequencies ωr <Ω e , where Ω e is the electron cyclotron frequency, and a characteristic spectral gap at ωr ≃Ω e /2. This paper uses spacecraft observations and two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations in a magnetized, homogeneous, collisionless plasma to test the hypothesis that banded chorus is due to local linear growth of two...
متن کاملCorrelation Dependences Determined by Simultaneous Multispacecraft Observations of Solar Wind and Imf Structures
Solar wind measurements on board several spacecraft were used to study the two-points correlations of the solar wind plasma structures. The factors having the most influence on the correlation level are the density variability and IMF cone angle. The characteristic length of large solar wind structures is estimated at 500–1000 RE . 1. Available Data and Method We compared simultaneous ion flux ...
