ELF Emissions in High Latitudes-Ray Path Calculation and Ground-Satellite Observations
This paper deals with ELF emissions observed in the dayside magnetosphere, called ELF hiss and polar chorus. These waves are generated in the magnetic equatorial region through Doppler-shifted cyclotron wave-particle interaction by high- energy electrons. According to the satellite observations, the...

This paper deals with ELF emissions observed in the dayside magnetosphere, called ELF hiss and polar chorus. These waves are generated in the magnetic equatorial region through Doppler-shifted cyclotron wave-particle interaction by high- energy electrons. According to the satellite observations, the features of ELF emissions such as power spectrum and wave normal direction in low-altitude polar region are significantly different from magnetic equatorial plane after their propagation in the magnetosphere. Especially in ELF range, magnetospheric ions play a fundamental role in low-altitude propagation, for example in LHR reflection and multi-ion cutoff.
