Abstract

We performed a statistical study of the locations of chorus emissions observed by the Polar spacecraft’s Plasma Wave Instrument (PWI) from March 1996 to September 1997, near the minimum of solar cycles 22/23. We examined how the occurrence of chorus emissions in the Polar PWI data set depends upon magnetic local time, magnetic latitude, L shell.
