WG2 Summary Broke into ring current/plasmasphere and radiation-belt subgroups RING CURRENT Identified events for addressing science questions What is the relative importance of the convection electric, penetration electric field, and variations of the plasma sheet distributions to the ring current? #45 21 Oct. 2001Polar EFI data shows dipolarizations at 9 R E, 22 MLT that are correlated with time derivative of Dst (ring current injections), earthward Poynting flux and energization of O+ (more than protons) observed by Polar/MICS. IMAGE/HENA observes the O+ injection as it reaches the ring current region (~100 keV) and precipitates on the upper atmosphere. Polar MPE, LANL/MPA & SOPA data avail. Modeling – Chen,Jordanova, Liemohn

The ring current causes large negative magnetic field perturbations as well as enhancements in fluxes of ions with keV in the inner magnetosphere yet these features have not been simultaneously accounted for from in-situ particle & field and ENA observations. To what extent are these observations consistent with each other and with models within our current framework of understanding of the ring current based on transport and loss? # Aug 2000Polar CAMMICE shows enhancements of H+ fluxes during storm main phase. IMAGE/HENA fluxes, Polar/MFE, LANL/MPA and SOPA avail. Modeling – Chen, Liemohn

PLASMASPHERE- Plan for Interchange Investigation Goal: Determine the what role (if any) interchange, ballooning, and/or Kelvin-Helmholtz instability might play in the global evolution of the plasmasphere, especially during erosion, formation of plumes, etc., but also during quiet times. Method: Use in situ data to make concrete predictions for observable features of instabilities in plasma. Try to observe these features in EUV data. Data: Ionospheric data DMSP In situ equatorial (or near equatorial) dataCluster CODIF remote sensing equatorialIMAGE EUV Plan: 1. Identify conjunctions of Cluster in inner magnetosphere (and CODIF measuring in RPA mode) and IMAGE EUV. 2. identify events that have good erosion in EUV. If good data in CODIF, proceed to step If no good events in both CODIF and EUV, broaden search to look at non erosion times. 4. Get DMSP data for input to calculations of Richardson number and predict, a. growth rate of instability b.scale size, speed (and other parameters) of observable features With predictions for observable features of plasma, look at EUV data.

RADIATION BELT Over what solar wind conditions and L range is radial transport vs. localized acceleration of electrons dominant? Empirical models have been successful at predicting geosynchronous fluxes based exclusively on input solar wind parameters, assuming radial transport as the dominant energization mechanism and parameterized L, energy-dependent loss. ULF and VLF wave power vs. L, correlated with electron phase space density and solar wind conditions and timing, needs further correlative, superposed epoch and event study. How does the ring current affect the radiation belt?
