摘要

abstract_textpA compressional Pc5 wave associated with localized hot proton injection was observed by the five THEMIS (Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms) spacecraft in the dusk sector of the Earth's magnetosphere at L similar to 10R(E) on 21 May 2007. The wave magnetic field perturbation transverse to the background magnetic field was primarily poloidal, in agreement with the predominately azimuthal wave vector direction (with westward phase velocity). The observation followed two consecutive substorms, when the cloud of energetic particles comprised of the lower-energy protons from the earlier substorm was mixed with higher-energy protons from the subsequent one. The clear signatures of the wave-particle drift resonance of protons modulated by the wave were observed. The wave period was found to be about 2 times longer than the corresponding Alfven wave eigenmode period on the same L-shells calculated with the THEMIS data. The increase of the particle energy with the distance from the Earth and the observed strong dependence of the wave frequency on the azimuthal wave number constitutes conditions for the gradient instability of the drift compressional mode (for the Alfven mode one supposes the particle energy decrease with radial distance). Based on these results, we conclude that the observed wave was the drift compressional mode generated by the gradient instability./p/abstract_text
