Spatial distribution of upstream magnetospheric ≥50 keV ions
We present for the first time a statistical study of \geq50 keV ion events of a magnetospheric origin upstream from Earth's bow shock. The statistical analysis of the 50-220 keV ion events observed by the IMP-8 spacecraft shows: (1) a dawn-dusk asymmetry in ion distributions, with most even...
