Geos I: identification of natural magnetospheric emissions

  • 1. Sussex Univ., Brighton (UK). School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences

Description

Natural noise bands, a persistent feature of the Earth's magnetosphere, have been identified for the first time, using novel techniques on the recently launched Geos I satellite. It is argued that these waves, in the electron cyclotron harmonic mode, are radiated incoherently by suprathermal electrons. (author)
