Global Phase Locking in Superradiant Chorus Emissions
Xin Tao, Fulvio Zonca, Liu Chen
Coherent wave amplification in inhomogeneous systems is usually described in terms of resonance and nonlinear phase locking, but these local phase conditions do not determine how t…
Frequency Chirping of Electromagnetic Ion Cyclotron Waves in Earth's Magnetosphere
Zeyu An, Xin Tao, Fulvio Zonca +1
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves are known to exhibit frequency chirping, contributing to the rapid scattering and acceleration of energetic particles. However, the physical mec…
Quantifying the Effects of Magnetic Field Line Curvature Scattering on Radiation Belt and Ring Current Particles
Bin Cai, Hanlin Li, Yifan Wu +1
Magnetic field line curvature (FLC) scattering is a collisionless scattering mechanism that arises when a particle's gyro-radius is comparable to the magnetic field line's curvatur…
Nonlinear dynamics and phase space transport by chorus emission
Fulvio Zonca, Xin Tao, Liu Chen
Chorus emission in planetary magnetospheres is taken as working paradigm to motivate a short tutorial trip through theoretical plasma physics methods and their applications. Starti…
A "Trap-Release-Amplify" Model of Chorus Waves
Xin Tao, Fulvio Zonca, Liu Chen
Whistler mode chorus waves are quasi-coherent electromagnetic emissions with frequency chirping. Various models have been proposed to understand the chirping mechanism, which is a…
Hamiltonian Theory of Adiabatic Motion of Relativistic Charged Particles
Xin Tao, Anthony Chan, Alain Brizard
A general Hamiltonian theory for the adiabatic motion of relativistic charged particles confined by slowly-varying background electromagnetic fields is presented based on a unified…
