L-shell and energy dependence of magnetic mirror point of charged particles trapped in Earth’s magnetosphere
Abstract In the Earth’s inner magnetosphere, there exist regions like plasmasphere, ring current, and radiation belts, where the population of charged particles trapped along the magnetic field lines is more. These particles keep performing gyration, bounce and drift motions until they enter the los...
