Equatorial Evolution of the Fast Magnetosonic Mode in the Source Region: Observation-Simulation Comparison of the Preferential Propagation Direction 

Min, Kyungguk; Boardsen, Scott A.; Denton, Richard E.; Liu, Kaijun; 0000-0001-5882-1328 (2020-05-28)
Recent analysis of an event observed by the Van Allen Probes in the source region outside the plasmapause has shown that fast magnetosonic waves (also referred to as equatorial noise) propagate preferentially in the azimuthal ...

Fast Magnetosonic Waves Observed by Van Allen Probes: Testing Local Wave Excitation Mechanism 

Min, Kyungguk; Liu, Kaijun; Wang, Xueyi; Chen, Lunjin; Denton, Richard E.; 0000-0001-5882-1328; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-05-28)
Linear Vlasov theory and particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations for electromagnetic fluctuations in a homogeneous, magnetized, and collisionless plasma are used to investigate a fast magnetosonic wave event observed by the Van ...

Ion Bernstein instability as a possible source for oxygen ion cyclotron harmonic waves 

Min, Kyungguk; Denton, Richard E.; Liu, Kaijun; Gary, S. Peter; Spence, Harlan E.; 0000-0001-5882-1328 (2020-06-01)
This paper demonstrates that an ion Bernstein instability can be a possible source for recently reported electromagnetic waves with frequencies at or near the singly ionized oxygen ion cyclotron frequency, Omega(+)(O), and ...

Particle-in-Cell Simulations of the Fast Magnetosonic Mode in a Dipole Magnetic Field: 1-D Along the Radial Direction 

Min, Kyungguk; Liu, Kaijun; Denton, Richard E.; Boardsen, Scott A.; 0000-0001-5882-1328 (2020-05-28)
An electromagnetic particle-in-cell code is used to investigate self-consistent evolution of the fast magnetosonic mode in a one-dimensional configuration along the radial direction in a dipole background magnetic field. ...

Quiet time equatorial mass density distribution derived from AMPTE/CCE and GOES using the magnetoseismology technique 

Min, Kyungguk; Bortnik, Jacob; Denton, Richard E.; Takahashi, Kazue; Lee, Jeongwoo; Singer, Howard J.; 0000-0002-2095-8529 (2020-06-05)
An inversion technique for estimating the properties of the magnetospheric plasma from the harmonic frequencies of the toroidal standing Alfven waves has been used to derive the global equatorial mass density covering ...

Solar cycle variation of plasma mass density in the outer magnetosphere: Magnetoseismic analysis of toroidal standing Alfven waves detected by Geotail 

Takahashi, Kazue; Denton, Richard E.; Hirahara, Masafumi; Min, Kyungguk; Ohtani, Shin-ichi; Sanchez, Ennio; 0000-0002-2095-8529 (2020-06-05)
We study the variation of plasma mass density in the outer magnetosphere over a solar cycle using mass density estimated from the frequency of fundamental toroidal standing Alfven waves observed by the Geotail spacecraft. ...
