Ion shell distributions as free energy source for plasma waves on auroral field lines mapping to plasma sheet boundary layer
Ion shell distributions are hollow spherical shells in velocity space that can be formed by many processes and occur in several regions of geospace. They are interesting because they have free energy that can, in principle, be transmitted to ions and electrons. Recently, a technique has been de...
