An empirical plasmasphere and trough density model: CRRES observations (2001, methodology): “Included in the GCPM are the Carpenter and Anderson [ 1992] model, the Gallagher et al. [ 1998] model, and several others [Gallagher et al., 2000].”
Extreme Ultraviolet Imager Observations of the Structure and Dynamics of the Plasmasphere (2003, methodology): “To compute these curves, we assumed the equatorial He+ abundance to follow the profile specified by Equation 4 of Gallagher et al. (2000), with a sharp cutoff simulating a plasmapause at L = 5.”
A new model of the location of the plasmapause: CRRES results (2002, methodology): “This is probably the widest-used plasmapause location model [see Gallagher et al., 2000] and was based on 208 ISEE 1 plasmapause crossings.”
International Reference Ionosphere 2007: Improvements and new parameters (2008, methodology): “Both new options will also provide for a smoother transition to plasmaspheric models, which in the past had problems connecting to the IRI (Gallagher et al., 2000), because IRI values at the ionosphere-plasmasphere boundary were much larger than the values from plasmaspheric models.”
