Scientific paper

In the inner magnetosphere where the plasmasphere, ring current and radiation belts co-exist, energy and momentum are transferred 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. This talk will review our current understanding of wave-particle interactions in the radiation belts. Though significant theoretical progress has been made, the relative importance of different processes has not been experimentally established in many cases. Examples of observable quantities that can be directly compared with theoretical predictions will be discussed.
