A Statistical Test of the Relationship Between Chorus Wave Activation and Anisotropy of Electron Phase Space Density
Whistler mode chorus wave is considered to play a critical role in accelerating and precipitating the electrons in the outer radiation belt. In this paper we test a conventional scenario of triggering chorus using THEMIS satellite observations of waves and particles. Specifically, we test if the c...
