Scientific paper

Plasma model predictions and nightside magnetosphere observations by the GEOS satellites of ion loss-cone distributions and ion waves are compared. Particles drifting along the ambient magnetic field may generate ion waves, but knowledge of the current density only is not sufficient to determine the stability of these waves. The importance of nondrifting particle distributions which may damp the waves, and the destabilizing effects of drifting, low density particle components is discussed in connection with current structures observed by the GEOS spacecraft.
