Second-Order Resonant Interaction of Ring Current Protons with Whistler-Mode Waves

         

摘要

We present a study on the second-order resonant interaction between the ring current protons with Whistler-mode waves propagating near the quasi electrostatic limit following the previous second-order resonant theory.The diffusion coefficients are proportional to the electric field amplitude E,much greater than those for the regular first-order resonance.which are proportional to the electric field amplitudes square E2.Numerical calculations for the pitch angle scattering are performed for typical energies of protons Ek=50ke V and 100ke V at locations L=2 and L=3.5.The timescale for the loss process of protons by the Whistler waves is found to approach one hour,comparable to that by the EMIC waves,suggesting that Whistler waves may also contribute significantly to the ring current decay under appropriate conditions.
