| Scope |
Despite extensive research, the physics of Earth's inner
magnetosphere is far from perfectly understood. This session invites
recent research results on plasma processes in the inner
magnetosphere, including studies on the radiation belts,
plasmasphere, ionosphere, and ring current. In particular,papers are
invited that explore the linkages between these key components of
the magnetosphere, e.g., how do structural variations of the inner
magnetospheric field due to the storm-time ring current control
electron radiation belt dynamics? how is the generation and global
distribution of energetic electrons in the outer zone influenced by
the spatial distribution of thermal plasma in the plasmasphere and
plasmaspheric plumes? how important are nonlinear wave-particle
interactions in controlling particle dynamics in the inner
magnetosphere? Theoretical, observational,modeling and simulation
studies that address these and other fundamental questions on inner
magnetospheric physics are welcome. |
