Scientific paper

Magnetic field measurements made with the AMPTE CCE spacecraft are used to investigate the distribution of ULF energy in the inner magnetosphere. The data base is employed to examine the spatial distribution of ULF energy. The spatial distribution of wave power and spectral structures are used to identify several pulsation types, including multiharmonic toroidal oscillations; equatorial compressional Pc 3 oscillations; second harmonic poloidal oscillations; and nightside compressional oscillations. The frequencies of the toroidal oscillations are applied to determine the statistical radial profile of the plasma mass density and Alfven velocity. A clear signature of the plasma pause in the profiles of these average parameters is found.
