Four-field model for dispersive field-line resonances: Effects of coupling between shear-Alfvén and slow modes

A new theoretical model is proposed for dispersive field‐line resonances in collisionless magnetospheric plasmas on the basis of reduced four‐field equations. The model improves upon the predictive capabilities of earlier two‐field models. In particular, due to the coupling of the shear‐Alfvén mode...
