FREDRICKS •pace SciencesLaboratory, TR W SystemsGroup Redondo Beach, Cali/ornia 90273 Ogo 5 observationsof the polar cusp on No.vember 1, 1968, show that the north-south com- ponent of the interplanetary field exhibits control over both the location of and the physical processesoccurring in the polar cusp. When the interplanetary field turned from north to south, the polar cusp moved equatorward. During •ntervals when the interplanetary field was southward, the electron temperature in the polar cusp was lower and the currents were strongerthan when the interplanetary field was northward. Also during theseintervals of south- ward field, regionsof apparentlyrapidly varying currentswere encounteredwithin the cusp. Associated with these regions were enhanced VLF electric field levels. When the interplane- tary field was northward, quasi-monochromatic Pc I waves close to but below the proton gyrofrequency and energetic electrons (E > 50 key) were observed.Most of these observations are consistentwith the existenceof merging of the interplanetary magnetic field with the day- side magnetospheric field when the interplanetary field is southward and the absence of mergingwhen it is northward.The dependenceof electrontemperature on field directionre- mains unexplained. • The 'polar cusp,' defined as the regionsin marized the particle and field observationsin the daysidehemisphere in which magnetosheath the cusp on that day, and the properties of plasma has accessto tile magnetosphere,has cusp plasma waves have been describedby been observed as a persistent feature of tile Scarf et al.

Russell et al. [1971] noted that Ogo 5 encounterswith the polar cusp showed the expected behavior, motion of the cusp equatorward occurring in response to a southward reorientation of the interplanetary magnetic field. This motion has also been confirmedby Burch [1972]. We also expect to observe changes in the plasma within the polar cusp accompanying reversal of the north-south componentof the interplanetary medium, if such reversal alters the topology of the magnetosphere.In partic- ular, the physicalprocesses governing the entry and acceleration of the magnetosheathplasma may be totally different for northward and southward interplanetary fields. In this paper we examine the polar cusp plasma during the Ogo 5 encounterswith the polar cusp on November 1, 1968, •o determine the responseof the plasma to changesof the orientation of the interplanetary field. The ob- servations are discussed in relation to theo- retical descriptionsof the ,olar cusp. Fig. 1.

Date of Construction: 1959 Present Owner: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Present Use: Home to NASA’s Launch Services Program (LSP) and the Launch Vehicle Data Center (LVDC). The LVDC allows engineers to monitor telemetry data during unmanned rocket launches. Significance: Missile Assembly Building AE, commonly called Hangar AE, is nationally significant as the telemetry station for NASA KSC’s unmanned Expendable Launch Vehicle (ELV) program. Since 1961, the building has been the principal facility for monitoring telemetry communications data during ELV launches and until 1995 it processed scientifically significant ELV satellite payloads. Still in operation, Hangar AE is essential to the continuing mission and success of NASA’s unmanned rocket launch program at KSC. It is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) under Criterion A in the area of Space Exploration as Kennedy Space Center’s (KSC) original Mission Control Center for its program of unmanned launch missions and under Criterion C as a contributing resource in the CCAFS Industrial Area Historic District.

Realization of this goal required a credible and up-to-date model of spatial distribution of neutral interstellar hydrogen in the heliosphere, and to that end, a credible model of the radiation pressure and ionization processes was needed.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Charged Particle Energization and Transport in the Magnetotail during Substorms A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Physics by Qingjiang Pan 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Charged Particle Energization and Transport in the Magnetotail during Substorms by Qingjiang Pan Doctor of Philosophy in Physics University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Maha Ashour-Abdalla, Chair This dissertation addresses the problem of energization of particles (both electrons and ions) to tens and hundreds of keV and the associated transport process in the magnetotail during substorms. Particles energized in the magnetotail are further accelerated to even higher energies (hundreds of keV to MeV) in the radiation belts, causing space weather hazards to human activities in space and on ground. We develop an analytical model to quantitatively estimate flux changes caused by betatron and Fermi acceleration when particles are transported along narrow high-speed flow channels from the magnetotail to the inner magnetosphere. The model shows that energetic particle flux can be significantly enhanced by a modest compression of the magnetic field and/or ii shrinking of the distance between the magnetic mirror points. We use coordinated spacecraft measurements, global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations driven by measured upstream solar wind conditions, and large-scale kinetic (LSK) simulations to quantify electron local acceleration in the near-Earth reconnection region and nonlocal acceleration during plasma earthward transport. Compared to the analytical model, application of the LSK simulations is much less restrictive because trajectories of millions of test particles are calculated in the realistically determined global MHD fields and the results are statistical.
