Research Abstract

This study focuses on the particle acceleration processes and their related phenomena which are universally found in the in-situ observations of the space plasma/wave/electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of the Earth. In particular, we have completed the complementary researches for the high-energy particle accelerations in the radiation belt due to the plasma wave-particle interaction, plasma particle accelerations due to the waves/fields in the polar magnetosphere, represented by auroral electrons, from the comprehensive aspects on the measurement techniques, data analyses, and modeling.
