[P-EM04_28PM1] New Perspectives on Earth's Inner Magnetosphere

Mon. Apr 28, 2014 2:15 PM - 3:55 PM 311 (3F)

Convener:*Danny Summers(Dept of Math and Stats,Memorial University of Newfoundland), Yusuke Ebihara(Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere, Kyoto University), Yoshizumi Miyoshi(Solar-Terrestrial Environement Laboratory, Nagoya University), Chair:Danny Summers(Dept of Math and Stats,Memorial University of Newfoundland)

Earth's inner magnetosphere is a complex, dynamic plasma environment which includes the radiation belts, ion/electron ring current, plasmasphere, and ionosphere at auroral/sub-auroral latitudes. This session invites papers on all facets of inner magnetosphere research, including recent observations from space and ground, simulations, modeling and theory. Reports of particle, wave, and field data from the Van Allen Probes are particularly welcome, in addition to observations from other satellite missions such as THEMIS, POES, Cluster, and Akebono as well as ground-based facilities such as SuperDARN and magnetometers. Papers related to the planned JAXA mission ERG are also especially encouraged. The ERG satellite, with an expected launch in 2015-2016, will explore in particular how relativistic electrons are generated in the inner magnetosphere during disturbed geomagnetic conditions. Both science-related and instrument-related papers on ERG are solicited, including ground-based observations and simulations. Recent advances in the analysis of magnetospheric wave-particle interactions via particle simulations and nonlinear theory are also welcome.
