A self-consistent model of helium in the thermosphere
We have found that consideration of neutral helium as a major species leads to a more complete physics-based modeling description of the Earth's upper thermosphere. An augmented...- publication PDF

Energy modulations of magnetospheric ions induced by foreshock...
Although foreshock transients can generate strong magnetospheric Pc5 ultralow-frequency (ULF) waves, whether they can modulate the energy of magnetospheric ions is still poorly...- publication PDF
