Modeling transverse heating and outflow of ionospheric ions from the dayside cusp/cleft. 2 Applications
In this paper, we consider major ion energization mechanisms in the dayside cusp/cleft region. This includes transverse ion heating by ion cyclotron resonance (ICR), ion energization through structures of field-aligned electric potential drops, and transverse heating by lower hybrid (LH) wav...
