Controlled Precipitation of Radiation Belt Particles

Abstract

The Air Force Grant documented here directly resulted in the purchase of hardware eight VLF receivers. Five of these receivers have been deployed successfully and are operating regularly and reliably. The remaining are pending imminent deployment. The new receiver sites have enabled Stanford to jumpstart a fully-funded THY program, with funds from Stanford University and NASA, which will enable a great expansion of this network, and in addition, provides a new dataset which will greatly support Stanford's scientific studies of VLF and magnetospheric and ionospheric physics.
