On How High‐Latitude Chorus Waves Tip the Balance Between Acceleration and Loss of Relativistic Electrons

Abstract Modeling and observations have shown that energy diffusion by chorus waves is an important source of acceleration of electrons to relativistic energies. By performing long‐term simulations using the three‐dimensional Versatile Electron Radiation Belt code, in this study, we test how the lat...
