| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied the acceleration process of relativistic electrons in planetary radiation belts by conducting 'cross-reference' simulations. We carried out (1) the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code for the interaction between solar wind and planetary magnetospheres and (2) electron hybrid code simulations reproducing the generation of whistler-mode chorus emissions, which play crucial roles in the efficient acceleration process of relativistic electrons in planetary magnetospheres. Based on the simulation results, we revealed the condition required for the chorus generation in the terrestrial and Jovian magnetospheres.
