An Empirical Model of the Equatorial Electron Pitch Angle Distributions in Earth's Outer Radiation Belt

An Empirical Model of the Equatorial Electron Pitch Angle Distributions in Earth's Outer Radiation Belt

Abstract In this study, we present an empirical model of the equatorial electron pitch angle distributions (PADs) in the outer radiation belt based on the full data set collected by the Magnetic Electron Ion Spectrometer (MagEIS) instrument onboard the Van Allen Probes in 2012–2019. The PADs are fit...
