Alfvén ship waves: high-<I>m</I> ULF pulsations in the magnetosphere generated by a moving plasma inhomogeneity

The generation of a high-<I>m</I> Alfvén wave by substorm injected energetic particles in the magnetosphere is studied. The wave is supposed to be emitted by an alternating current created by the drifting particle cloud or ring current inhomogeneity. It is shown that the wave appears...
