Radiation belt dynamics: The importance of wave‐particle interactions (2010, background): “…during cyclotron and Landau resonance with chorus emissions provides a major mechanism for diffusive transport towards the loss cone and ultimate loss by collisions in the atmosphere for a broad range of electron energies [Lam et al., 2010; Hikishima et al., 2009, 2010; Orlova and Shprits, 2010].”
Constructing the global distribution of chorus wave intensity using measurements of electrons by the POES satellites and waves by the Van Allen Probes (2013, methodology): “Since lower-band chorus waves play a dominant role in scattering> 30 keV electrons [e.g., Lam et al., 2010], we use the counting rate in the energy range between E1 = 30 keV and E2 = 100 keV, obtained by subtracting the counting rates in the energy channel of> 100 keV from that of> 30 keV.”
Radiation belt electron acceleration by chorus waves during the 17 March 2013 storm (2014, methodology): “Based on the fact that lower-band chorus waves play a dominant role in driving 30–100keV electron precipitation [e.g., Lam et al., 2010; Thorne et al., 2010], using quasi-linear diffusion theory [Kennel and Petschek, 1966], we developed a physics-based technique to link the electron pitch angle…”
