Statistical investigation on equatorial pitch angle distribution of energetic electrons in Earth’s outer radiation belt during CME- and CIR-driven storms

Statistical investigation on equatorial pitch angle distribution of energetic electrons in Earth’s outer radiation belt during CME- and CIR-driven storms

We present a statistical investigation (September 2012 - September 2017) of pitch angle distribution (PAD) of energetic electrons (∼30 keV - 1 MeV) in the outer radiation belt (L ≥ 3) during CME- and CIR-driven geomagnetic storms using Van Allen Probe measurements. We selected geomagnetic storms bas...
