The turbulent plasmasphere boundary layer and the outer radiation belt boundary

Evgeny Mishin, Vladimir Sotnikov2017年Plasma Physics and Controlled FusionIF 2.2出版社

We report on observations of enhanced plasma turbulence and hot particle distributions in the plasmasphere boundary layer formed by reconnection-injected hot plasma jets entering the plasmasphere. The data confirm that the electron pressure peak is formed just outward of the plasmapause in the premidnight sector. Free energy for plasma wave excitation comes from diamagnetic ion currents near the inner edge of the boundary layer due to the ion pressure gradient, electron diamagnetic currents in the entry layer near the electron plasma sheet boundary, and anisotropic (sometimes ring-like) ion distributions revealed inside, and further inward of, the inner boundary. We also show that nonlinear parametric coupling between lower oblique resonance and fast magnetosonic waves significantly contributes to the VLF whistler wave spectrum in the plasmasphere boundary layer. These emissions represent a distinctive subset of substorm/storm-related VLF activity in the region devoid of substorm injected tens keV electrons and could be responsible for the alteration of the outer radiation belt boundary during (sub)storms.

我々は、磁気リコネクションによって注入された高温プラズマジェットがプラズマ圏へ進入することによって形成されるプラズマ圏境界層における、増強されたプラズマ乱流と高温粒子分布の観測について報告する。データは、電子圧力ピークが前半夜側のプラズマポーズのすぐ外側に形成されることを確認している。プラズマ波動励起のための自由エネルギーは、イオン圧力勾配による境界層内縁付近の反磁性イオン電流、電子プラズマシート境界付近の進入層における反磁性電子電流、そして内縁の内部およびさらに内側で明らかにされた異方性(時にはリング状の)イオン分布に由来する。我々はまた、低域斜め共鳴と高速磁気音波との間の非線形パラメトリック結合が、プラズマ圏境界層におけるVLFホイスラー波スペクトルに有意に寄与することを示す。これらの放射は、サブストーム注入による数十keV電子が存在しない領域におけるサブストーム/ストーム関連VLF活動の特徴的なサブセットを表し、(サブ)ストーム中の外側放射線帯境界の変化の原因となり得る。
