Surfing Acceleration of Radiation Belt Relativistic Electrons Induced by the Propagation of Interplanetary Shock

Abstract Interplanetary shocks (IPS) can initiate prompt acceleration of relativistic electrons in the Earth's radiation belt, which is related to the generation and propagation of impulsive electric field (IEF). We investigate the effect of IEF on accelerating radiation belt electrons in the 6...
