Scientific paper

In the inner magnetosphere where the plasmasphere, ring current and radiation belts co-exist, energy and momentum are exchanged between different plasma populations by plasma waves. Resonant interaction with these waves can lead to both energization and loss of radiation belt electrons, resulting in the highly variable flux of these particles. Though significant theoretical progress has been made, profound mysteries remain due to the lack of coordinated measurements. This talk will review our current understanding of wave-particle interactions in the radiation belts, and will discuss the unique opportunity that the combined measurements of upcoming missions will provide to address the outstanding questions.
