Observational Evidence for Whistler Mode Waves Guided/Ducted by the Inner and Outer Edges of the Plasmapause

Abstract We present observational support for whistler mode waves guidance by the plasmapause gradients based on a case study and statistical analyses. Due to the combined effects of inhomogeneous magnetic fields and plasma densities, whistler mode waves near the inner edge of plasmapause (plasmasph...
