The Electromagnetic Ion Cyclotron Instability Affected by the Temperature Anisotropic Electrons in the Inner Magnetosphere

Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) instabilities in the inner magnetosphere are investigated with considering the effect of temperature anisotropic electrons. The perpendicular anisotropic electrons (Ae > 1) impose an inhibiting effect on EMIC instabilities, whereas parallel anisotropi...
