Scientific paper

The S3-3 data set has been examined for examples of perpendicular ion acceleration with simultaneous broadband plasma wave data. One event was found. Plasma waves in the frequency range for lower hybrid waves and in the frequency range for Doppler-shifted O(+) ion cyclotron waves modestly correlated with the perpendicular ion acceleration, although their electric field amplitudes were less than that assumed in present theories of ion acceleration; about 0.2-6 mV/m (rms) for the LHR waves and 4-9 mV/m (rms) for the possible Doppler-shifted O(+) cyclotron waves. Plasma waves propagating above the LHR frequency very briefly reached a value of 30 mV/m (rms), but during most of the event their amplitude was below 10 mV/m (rms).
