Origin of energetic ions in the polar cusp inferred from ion composition measurements by the Viking satellite

The magnetospheric ion composition spectrometer MICS on the Swedish Viking satellite provided measurements of the ion composition in the energy range 10.1 keV/eleq<i>E</i>/<i>Q</i>leq326.0 keV/e. Data obtained during orbit 842 were used to inve...
