    A skeptic's view of PLR effects in the magnetosphere (1981)
    In:  Other Sources

    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: A summary is provided of the current state of knowledge concerning the effects of man-made Power Line Harmonic Radiation (PLR) on the earth's magnetosphere and its energetic particle population. It is generally agreed that PLR is strongly attenuated as it propagates into the outer magnetosphere (outside the plasmasphere) and, other than rare cases where ducting occurs, the emissions either do not manage to propagate to the equatorial plane or are sufficiently reduced in amplitude to be below the sensitivity of currently orbiting plasma wave instrumentation. In either case PLR emissions are too weak to have a significant direct effect on scattering the trapped particle population; any possible effects must be indirect. It has, therefore, been postulated that PLR can act as an 'embryonic emission' for triggering intense whistler mode 'chorus', which then via cyclotron resonant interactions, cause particle pitch-angle scattering. Points of disagreement are related to the geographic distribution of chorus, the chorus starting frequency, the Sunday effect, and PLR effects within the plasmasphere.

    On the absence of plasma wave emissions and the magnetic field orientation in the distant magnetosheath (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: In early September, 1983 ISEE-3 made a long traversal of the distant dawnside magnetosheath starting near x = -150 R(sub E) downstream. The distant magnetosheath often contains moderately intense plasma wave emissions at frequencies from several hundred Hz to 5 kHz. However, over time scales of many days, a clear correlation exists between the occurrence of the plasma waves and the cone angle (theta(sub xB)) between the magnetic field and the plasma flow velocity (x-direction). For theta(sub xB) large (small), the plasma wave amplitudes are near background (high). Sudden (less than 1 minute) changes in the local magnetic field orientation produce correspondingly sudden changes in the wave amplitudes. Statistically, the wave amplitudes decrease continuously with increasing theta(sub xB).
