Scientific paper

Electron conics can be generated by fluctuations at roughly one Hz in a parallel electric field accelerating auroral electrons at altitudes of several thousand kilometers. The results from simulations including such time-varying electric fields are in good agreement with observed electron distributions. The simulation parameters are consistent with the ion beams and broadband waves associated with electron conics. Calculations are used to predict for example oscillations in the low altitude electron fluxes. These results can be used to compare different possible mechanisms for the generation of electron conics.
