摘要：
Quasi-electrostatic ELF/VLF chorus emissions immediately above the equatorial half-gyrofrequency, observed to propagate with wave normal angle (psi) within 0.4-1.2-degrees of the resonance cone (psi(r) [Muto et al., 1987], are shown to efficiently resonate with 0.1-10 keV electrons. These waves may thus be important in driving the relatively low energy (< 10 keV) component of pulsating aurorae and the morning-side diffuse aurorae (approximately 1 keV).
