Simulation of field-aligned H<sup>+</sup> and He<sup>+</sup> dynamics during late-stage plasmasphere refilling

The refilling of the plasmasphere for 3&le;<I>L</I>&le;4 following a model storm is simulated over long times (days) using the NRL ionosphere code SAMI2 (Sami2 is Another Model of the Ionosphere). Refilling is dependent on the supply of topside H<sup>+</sup> and H...
