Broadband Kinetic Alfvén Waves and the Pitch Angle Distribution of Relativistic Electrons

Abstract A statistical survey using 3 years of Van Allen Probes data from 2013 to 2015 is conducted to investigate the impact of broadband kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs) on the pitch angle distributions (PADs) of relativistic electrons. 62 events exhibiting distinct KAW signatures, identified when othe...
