Trapped and Leaking Energetic Particles in Injection Flux Tubes of Saturn's Magnetosphere

Trapped and Leaking Energetic Particles in Injection Flux Tubes of Saturn's Magnetosphere

Abstract In Saturn's magnetosphere, the radially‐inward transport of magnetic fluxes is usually carried by localized flux tubes with sharply‐enhanced equatorial magnetic fields. The flux tubes also bring energetic particles inward, which are expected to drift azimuthally and produce energy‐disp...
