GEM 2008-2009 Activities & Documents

TOPIC (I): WAVE-PARTICLE INTERACTIONS       

  •         A.         How does the evolving global distribution of cold plasma govern the growth and propagation of waves, specifically those that control energetic particle distributions & dynamics?
  •         B.         How do ambient plasma properties such as temperature, density, and composition influence wave particle interactions?

TOPIC (II): PLUME DYNAMICS & RECIRCULATION       

  •         A.         How is eroded plasmaspheric material transported throughout the magnetosphere, and how does it evolve?
  •         B.        How do plumes influence the reconnection process, and what are the implications for solar-wind-magnetosphere coupling?
