Ordered Fine Structure in the Radio Emission Observed by Cassini Cluster and Polar

Kurth, W. S.; Menietti, J. D.

Cassini has observed ordered fine structure in the Saturn kilometric radiation (SKR) data that bears a strong resemblance to similar features observed by Polar and Cluster in the terrestrial auroral kilometric radiation (AKR) data. We investigate the possible role of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in stimulating the growth of AKR and p…

Observation of Continuum Radiation Close to the Plasmapause: Evidence for Small Scale Sources

Grimald, S.; Canu, P.; Décréau, P. +1 more

We briefly present observations of nonthermal continuum (NTC) radiations obtained close to the sources at the plasmapause by the Whisper instruments on Cluster. The examples considered illustrate the variety of the characteristics of the NTC such as the overall bandwidth of the emissions. The omnipresent multiple narrow bandwidth components are fu…
