Direct Evidence of Drift‐Compressional Wave Generation in the Earth's Magnetosphere Detected by Arase
Abstract We present the first direct evidence of an in situ excitation of drift‐compressional waves driven by drift resonance with ring current protons in the magnetosphere. Compressional Pc4–5 waves with frequencies of 4–12 mHz were observed by the Arase satellite near the magnetic equator at L ∼ 6...
