A theoretical model for the ring current interaction with the earth's plasmasphere

This paper reports on a theoretical study of the magnetospheric ring current effect on the topside plasmasphere and ionosphere. MHD waves generated by energetic anisotropic protons of the ring current are used as the mechanism for energy transfer to plasmaspheric electrons and ions. Plasmaspheric pa...
