Propagation and Dispersion of Lightning-Generated Whistlers Measured From the Van Allen Probes

Propagation and Dispersion of Lightning-Generated Whistlers Measured From the Van Allen Probes

We study the propagation and attenuation of lightning-generated whistler (LGW) waves in near-Earth space (L ≤ 3) through the statistical study of three specific quantities extracted from data recorded by NASA’s Van Allen Probes mission, from 2012 to 2019: the LGW electric and magnetic power attenuat...
