• Global model of lower band and upper band chorus from multiple satellite observations (2012, background): “…is itself responsible for the formation of the slot region between the inner and outer radiation belts [Lyons and Thorne, 1973; Meredith et al., 2007, 2009] and the quiet time decay of energetic electrons in the outer radiation belt [Meredith et al., 2006a; Summers et al., 2007; Lam et al., 2007].”
• Statistics of whistler mode waves in the outer radiation belt: Cluster STAFF‐SA measurements (2013, background): “This range is known to be dominated by the plasmaspheric hiss (mainly from fLH to approximately 0.1 fce) [Thorne et al., 1973; Meredith et al., 2006], by the lower band (LB) chorus (0.1fce < f < 0.5fce) and by the upper band (UB) chorus waves (0.5fce < f < 1.0fce).”
• Relativistic electron loss timescales in the slot region (2009, background): “Since lightning-generated whistlers are stronger on the nightside than the dayside, and independent of magnetic activity on the nightside [ Meredith et al., 2006b ] the diffusion rates for lightninggenerated whistlers under quiet conditions are also appropriate for active conditions.”
• Modeling the evolution of chorus waves into plasmaspheric hiss (2011, background): “Since chorus wave power is known to be geomagnetically controlled [Meredith et al., 2003; Li et al., 7 of 13 2009], the plasmaspheric hiss that arises from chorus, would thus naturally show the same dependence on geomagnetic activity, consistent with observation [Meredith et al., 2004, 2006].”
• Slot region electron loss timescales due to plasmaspheric hiss and lightning‐generated whistlers (2007, methodology): “However, since the frequency range from 2 to 5 kHz includes lightning-generated waves [ Meredith et al., 2006b ], we can use this band to estimate a lower limit on the loss timescales due to lightning-generated whistlers.”
• Use of POES SEM-2 observations to examine radiation belt dynamics and energetic electron precipitation into the atmosphere (2010, background): “The presence of time delays is consistent with a “cartoon” view of electron acceleration processes, for example through cyclotron interactions with VLF waves [ Horne et al., 2005 ] such that electrons are accelerated to progressively higher energies over time.”
