GEM: Detailed Study of the Magnetic Storms Selected for GEM Inner Magnetosphere and Storms Campaign

这个项目将把PI先前关于地球同步轨道上高能电子的模型的结果扩展到覆盖从3-10R的整个内磁层。它还将确定太阳风速和电子通量增强之间的相关性的物理基础。地球空间环境模拟方案运动选择的磁暴事件用于详细研究内磁层和磁暴，将用来将模拟工作的结果与测量数据进行比较。将特别强调电子的传输和带电是否可归因于扩散或是否需要其他机制的问题。

This project will extend the results of the PI's previous model for energetic electrons at geosynchronous orbit to cover the entire inner magnetosphere from 3-10 R. It will also determine the physical basis of the correlation between the solar wind speed and electron flux enhancements. The magnetic storm events chosen for detailed study by the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) program campaign on the Inner Magnetosphere and Storms will be used to compare the results of the modeling effort to the measured data. Particular emphasis will be placed on the question of whether the transport and energization of the electrons can be accounted for as a result of diffusion or whether other mechanisms are required.
