Scientific paper

The energy and time evolution of wave-induced X-ray microbursts are examined using data from balloons launched from Siple station (Antarctica) on December 30, 1980, and the results are compared with the predictions of a simulation model of wave-induced electron precipitation resulting from gyroresonant wave-particle interactions in the magnetosphere. The observations provide support for the gyroresonant test particle simulation model, and for the hypothesis that the observed type of microbursts originates in the vicinity of the magnetic equator in a gyroresonant process involving discrete chorus emissions.
