• Three-dimensional simulations of outer radiation belt electron dynamics including cross-diffusion terms (2010, methodology): “Such substantial enhancement of flux has been regarded as the result of cyclotron wave‐particle interactions [Horne and Thorne, 1998; Summers et al., 1998, 2004, 2007a, 2007b; Roth et al., 1999; Summers and Ma, 2000; Horne et al., 2003a, 2005; L.

• Model of the energization of outer‐zone electrons by whistler‐mode chorus during the October 9, 1990 geomagnetic storm (2002, background): “The value L = 4 was chosen because physical processes not specifically included in this investigation, in particular that of radial diffusion, are expected to be insignificant in the electron acceleration process at this location [Brautigam and Albert, 2000; Meredith et al., 2002b].”
• The Upgraded CARISMA Magnetometer Array in the THEMIS Era (2008, unknown): “Historically, collisionless radial diffusion coefficients (e.g. Falthammer 1966; Schultz and Lanzerotti 1974) have been quantified as a function of Kp from observations such as from CRRES (e.g. Brautigam and Albert 2000).”
• Simulation of the outer radiation belt electrons near geosynchronous orbit including both radial diffusion and resonant interaction with Whistler‐mode chorus waves (2005, background): “However, simulations of relativistic electron variations during high magnetic activity conditions [e.g., Brautigam and Albert, 2000; Miyoshi et al., 2003, Shprits and Thorne, 2004] suggest that inward radial diffusion alone cannot account for the observed temporal and spatial flux variations.”
• Multidimensional quasi‐linear diffusion of radiation belt electrons (2005, background): “Outside the plasmasphere, however, such models have not been able to reproduce the localized high energy phase space density peaks frequently observed to develop during the recovery phase of magnetic storms [e.g., Brautigam and Albert, 2000; Shprits and Thorne, 2004].”
• Earth's Van Allen Radiation Belts: From Discovery to the Van Allen Probes Era (2019, methodology): “Brautigam and Albert (2000) modeled the power level as a function of geomagnetic activity using the Kp activity index and fitting the L dependence to the Fälthammar model to determine diffusion coefficients DLL that have been widely used.”
• Relativistic electron precipitation by EMIC waves from self‐consistent global simulations (2008, methodology): “In this study the time-dependent electron transport and acceleration are calculated with (1) a Kp-dependent Volland [1973] - Stern [1975] type convection electric potential, (2) a corotation electric potential U = � C/Ro, (3) a dipole model of the Earth’s magnetic field, and (4) radial diffusion coe”
• Modeling of outer radiation belt electrons by multidimensional diffusion process (2009, background): “... acceleration driven by cyclotron wave-particle interaction [Horne and Thorne, 1998; Summers et al., 1998; Roth et al., 1999; Summers and Ma, 2000; Summers et al., 2002; Horne et al., 2003a; Summers et al., 2004; Horne et al., 2005; L.

• The dual role of ELF/VLF chorus waves in the acceleration and precipitation of radiation belt electrons (2007, methodology): “…modeling have shown that recovery phase acceleration rates are inconsistent with the radial diffusion model and support energization due to chorus (Brautigam and Albert, 2000; Shprits et al.,…”

(2014, equations (20) and (23)), the electric radial diffusion coefficient obtained by Liu…”

The questions then that cast doubt on radial diffusion models are: What is the source population, an”
