Magnetic-local-time dependency of radiation belt electron precipitation: impact on ozone in the polar middle atmosphere

<p>The radiation belts are regions in the near-Earth space where solar wind electrons are captured by the Earth's magnetic field. A portion of these electrons is continuously lost into the atmosphere where they cause ionization and chemical changes. Driven by the solar activity, the elect...
