ROPA Launch Feb 12, 2007, 12:45:04 UT

FAST study, Sato 2004 [Sato et al. 2004] 6 s pulsation Accelerated electron flux enhancements (inverted-V): no clear correlation with the optical signatures. Well correlated with temporal and spatial variations of the optical pulsating aurora. one-to-one correspondence between the downgoing, high energy (> 5 keV) electron flux and the optical pulsating aurora After “D-E”, the inverted-V structure appears to continue, although the > 5 keV flux is diminished: an inverted-V structure may not be a sufficient condition for producing a pulsating aurora.

COSPAR: current REIMEI study Numerous direct observations by REIMEI show the pulsating aurora are caused by electrons repeatedly precipitating with energy dispersions and isotropic pitch angle distributions with a single loss cone. Some cases indicate that small inverted-V-type electron signatures are embedded between each of the pulsating electron components, which may suggest that the increase of the ionospheric conductivity by pulsating auroral precipitations restrains the growth of the inverted-V structures.

Plan for exploring idea of secondaries SubkeV e - accelerated by parallel E? E-field exists at some altitude Distribution of secondary e - depends on altitude for < around 600 km Input primary, plasmasheet ~5keV precipitation Model secondary e- distribution Accelerated this modeled population through estimated potential Compare resulting secondary e - population to that measured by ROPA Can model secondary distribution for variety of altitudes Are the subkeV e - really secondary/backscattered? At what altitude is the acceleration region?
