Particle Dynamics in the Earth's Radiation Belts: Review of Current Research and Open Questions (2020, background): “14 of 48 whistler mode waves have been observed propagating obliquely at the equator (Cattell et al., 2008).”
Global model of lower band and upper band chorus from multiple satellite observations (2012, background): “However, the time resolution is not high enough to resolve the very large amplitude chorus waves which have been observed recently by several spacecraft [e.g., Cattell et al., 2008; Cully et al., 2008b].”
Earth's Van Allen Radiation Belts: From Discovery to the Van Allen Probes Era (2019, background): “Although the universal applicability of quasilinear theory is called into question by the presence of discrete, large‐amplitude chorus (e.g., Cattell et al., 2008; Cully et al., 2008; Kellogg et al., 2011; Tyler et al., 2019; Wilson et al., 2011), test particle simulations have demonstrated its…”
Resonant scattering of plasma sheet electrons leading to diffuse auroral precipitation: 2. Evaluation for whistler mode chorus waves (2011, background): “Recently, very large amplitude whistler mode chorus have been observed both by STEREO [Cattell et al., 2008] and by THEMIS [Cully et al., 2008], suggesting a new paradigm for the interaction between energetic electrons and chorus waves.”
