Solar Energetic Particle Access
Summary of ‘ULF Wave’ Effects on Energetic Particles Electrons interact diffusively with ULF waves with f ~ electron drift period while conserving first invariant Large amplitude distortion of magnetopause launches magnetosonic impulse outside range of linear ULF wave models, drift time scale injection of MeV electrons and protons (electrons unusual) Solar energetic particles trapped on drift time scale, stay trapped as long as 1 st invariant conserved (Young et al., 2002)
Higher Frequency Wave Mode Effects Other, 1 st invariant violating processes responsible for energy/momentum diffusion and pitch angle diffusion at fixed L (VLF/ELF) Summers and Ma, JGR, 2000
