• Global characteristics of electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves: Occurrence rate and its storm dependence (2013, background): “[3] EMIC waves can interact with radiation belt electrons via Doppler-shifted cyclotron resonance and cause the pitch angle scattering of the electrons and their loss into the atmosphere [e.g., Thorne and Kennel, 1971; Lyons and Thorne, 1972; Horne and Thorne, 1998; Summers et al., 1998; Friedel et ”
• Observation of two distinct, rapid loss mechanisms during the 20 November 2003 radiation belt dropout event (2006, background): “Although the radiation belts have been studied for over 4 decades (e.g., see historical account by Stern [1996]), and the two-zone structure of the quiet time radiation belts has been explained in terms of inwardradialdiffusionandlosstotheatmosphere[Lyonsand Thorne, 1972], many of the processes resp”
• On the storm‐time evolution of relativistic electron phase space density in Earth's outer radiation belt (2013, background): “These variations occur over a broad range of time scales, from minutes to years [see reviews by Friedel et al., 2002; Millan and Thorne, 2007; Shprits et al., 2008a, 2008b; Turner et al., 2012c].”
• The THEMIS Mission (2008, background): “…(Li et al. 2001), but it is unclear whether such an electron source is indeed present beyond geosynchronous altitude at storm recovery or whether local acceleration of inner magnetosphere cold/warm electrons by ULF or VLF waves may play a role (e.g., Friedel et al. 2002; Millan and Thorne 2007).”
• Differences between CME‐driven storms and CIR‐driven storms (2006, background): “In Figure 13, note the well-known delay in the appearance of intense relativistic electron fluxes from the onsets of the storms [cf. Friedel et al., 2002].”
• Calculation of pitch angle and energy diffusion coefficients with the PADIE code (2005, background): “Enhanced radial transport and acceleration and loss by wave-particle interactions are thought to contribute significantly to these flux variations (e.g., see the reviews by Li and Temerin [2001], Friedel et al. [2002] , and Horne [2002]).”
• Energetic electrons, 50 keV to 6 MeV, at geosynchronous orbit: Their responses to solar wind variations (2005, unknown): “The correlation of relativistic electron fluxes with interplanetary parameters, including the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) were further analyzed [Blake et al., 1997; Fung and Tan, 1998; Obara et al., 2000; Friedel et al., 2002].”
• Energetic electron response to ULF waves induced by interplanetary shocks in the outer radiation belt (2009, background): “[4] It remains unclear how these shock-related energetic particles are produced and accelerated in the magnetosphere [ Friedel et al., 2002; Baker et al., 2004].”

• Dynamics of the Earth’s Particle Radiation Environment (2009, background): “It has been established that electron acceleration occurs inside the magnetosphere (Li et al. 1997) and several possible acceleration mechanisms have been proposed (see the reviews by Li and Temerin 2001; Friedel et al. 2002; Horne 2002).”
• Timescales for radiation belt electron acceleration and loss due to resonant wave-particle interactions: 1. Theory (2007, background): “A broad discussion of the issues of radiation belt electron transport, acceleration, and loss is provided collectively in the papers by Li and Temerin [2001], Friedel et al. [2002] , O’Brien et al. [2003], Green and Kivelson [2004], Green et al. [2005], and Thorne et al. [2005a].”
