Dartmouth-led study explores wave-particle interaction in atmosphere
Hanover NH (SPX) Oct 29, 2015 - A Dartmouth-led study sheds light on the impact of plasma waves on high-energy electrons streaking into Earth's magnetic field from space. The findings are important because relativistic electrons can lead to ozone depletion and threaten orbital satellites, spacecraft and astronauts, and understanding the evolution of Earth's radiation belts could help lessen the effects of these particles ... more
