“…Through wave particle interaction, they can lead to precipitations of ring current ions [ Cornwall et al ., ; Jordanova et al ., ; Keika et al ., ; Yuan et al ., , ; Zhu et al ., ; Su et al ., ] and relativistic electrons [ Bortnik et al ., ; Summers et al ., ; Jordanova et al ., ; Shprits et al ., ; Su et al ., , , , ; Yuan et al ., ; Hyun et al ., ; D. D. Wang et al , ]. Through Landau damping, they can also heat cold electrons in the magnetosphere [ Zhou et al ., ] and plasmaspheric plume [ Yuan et al ., ]. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the distribution characteristics of EMIC waves in the inner magnetosphere, especially the distribution function about L and magnetic local time (MLT).…”
