1958年发现的围绕地球的磁性捕获高能粒子[1,2]标志着一个新的科学学科-空间物理学的开始。早期的美国和苏联卫星提供了大量关于辐射带的初始数据; 20世纪70年代国际协调的卫星任务导致了对相关来源、加速和扩散过程的研究。20世纪80年代和90年代,随着先锋号、伽利略号和卡西尼号任务的完成,空间物理学将兴趣转向了外行星;地球辐射带研究在某种程度上陷入了中断。然而,情况正在发生变化,美国航天局的货车艾伦探测器、加拿大的外辐射带注入、运输、加速和损失卫星以及日本的地球空间能量化和辐射使命等几项卫星任务都是为了增进我们对辐射带动态的了解。在轨道上仅仅几个月后,货车艾伦探测器二人组就已经提供了关于地磁捕获粒子动力学的意料之外和诱人的结果[3,4]。这整个的发展--我们可以称之为辐射带物理学的复兴--也将需要振兴所有相关物理过程的理论研究。这本书代表了一个彻底的修订,扩大和更新胡安G。Roederer 1970年的“经典”地磁俘获辐射动力学[5]
The discovery in 1958 of magnetically trapped energetic particles surrounding planet Earth [1, 2] marked the beginnings of a new scientific discipline—Space Physics. Early US and Soviet satellites provided a wealth of initial data on the radiation belts; internationally coordinated satellite missions in the 1970s led to the study of relevant source, acceleration and diffusion processes. In the 1980s and 1990s, with the Pioneer, Galileo and Cassini missions, space physics turned its interest to the outer planets; terrestrial radiation belt studies fell somewhat into a hiatus. The situation, however, is changing, with several satellite missions like the NASA Van Allen Probes, the Canadian Outer Radiation Belt Injection, Transport, Acceleration, and Loss Satellite (ORBITALS) and the Japanese Energization and Radiation in Geospace (ERG) mission, all designed to enhance our understanding of radiation belt dynamics. After only a few months in orbit, the Van Allen Probes duo already has provided unsuspected and tantalizing results on the dynamics of geomagnetically trapped particles [3, 4]. This whole development—we may call it rejuvenation of radiation belt physics—will also require revitalizing the theoretical studies of all physical processes involved. This book represents a thorough revision, expansion and update of Juan G. Roederer’s 1970 “classic” Dynamics of Geomagnetically Trapped Radiation [5]
