Ring Current Effect on Magnetospheric Electron Density Profiles derived from Plasmapause Whistlers

THE longitudinal drift of van Allen radiation belt charged particles, with opposite charges drifting in opposite directions in the geomagnetic field, constitutes a westward directed ring current at a distance of several Earth radii 1 . Although at magnetically quiet times this current scarcely neith...
