• Relativistic turning acceleration of resonant electrons by coherent whistler mode waves in a dipole magnetic field (2007, background): “A physical mechanism that can account for the storm-time generation of relativistic electrons is cyclotron resonance with whistler mode chorus waves outside the plasmasphere [ Summers et al., 1998, 2002, 2004; Roth et al., 1999; Summers and Ma, 2000; Meredith et al. ,2 002;Albert, 2002; Miyoshi et ”
• Timescale for radiation belt electron acceleration by whistler mode chorus waves (2005, result): “While previous estimates have generally been favorable, they have assumed field-aligned waves [ Summers et al., 2002, 2004 ] and a uniform distribution of wave power in magnetic local time (MLT) [Horne et al., 2003b].”

• The dual role of ELF/VLF chorus waves in the acceleration and precipitation of radiation belt electrons (2007, background): “This anchor point is at 460 keV, in agreement with theoretical estimates (Summers et al., 2002; Horne et al., 2005b).”
• Resonant diffusion of radiation belt electrons by whistler‐mode chorus (2003, background): “[4] One important mechanism for local electron acceleration involves resonant diffusion by whistler-mode waves [Horne and Thorne, 1998; Summers et al., 1998; Summers and Ma, 2000].”

• Radiation belt electron acceleration by chorus waves during the 17 March 2013 storm (2014, background): “The potential candidates for providing this further acceleration include local acceleration by wave-particle interactions [Summers et al., 2002; Horne et al., 2005a] and inward radial diffusion [Perry et al., 2005; Ukhorskiy et al., 2009].”
• Simulation of the outer radiation belt electrons near geosynchronous orbit including both radial diffusion and resonant interaction with Whistler‐mode chorus waves (2005, background): “[4] Recent theoretical studies show that resonant interactions with whistler-mode chorus waves are capable of accelerating electrons to relativistic energies [Horne and Thorne, 1998; Summers et al., 2002; Horne et al., 2003, 2005].”
