It's Not Easy Being Green: Kinetic Modeling of the Emission Spectrum Observed in STEVE's Picket Fence

Abstract Recent studies suggest that, despite its aurora‐like appearance, the picket fence may not be driven by magnetospheric particle precipitation but instead by local electric fields parallel to Earth's magnetic field. Here, we evaluate the parallel electric fields hypothesis by quantitativ...
