Formation of the high-energy ion population in the earth's magnetotail: spacecraft observations and theoretical models

We investigate the formation of the high-energy (<i>E</i> &in; [20,600] keV) ion population in the earth's magnetotail. We collect statistics of 4 years of Interball / Tail observations (1995–1998) in the vicinity of the neutral plane in the magnetotail region (<i>X<...
