A hybrid code is used to simulate the electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in dipole geometry. In the hybrid code, ions are treated as macro particles and electrons as a massless resistive fluid. EMIC waves are observed in the magnetosphere and play an important role in wave-particle interaction in this region. Recent evidence has indicated that they may be one of the major causes of loss of the relativistic electrons in the radiation belts. Yet their growth and effects on particles have not been studied in a realistic geometry. Two dimensional runs in dipole geometry have been made, but as of the writing of this abstract have not yet been extended to realistic parameters. Results to date will be shown.
