Khazanov, G.V., Gombosi, T.I., Nagy, A.F. and Koen, M.A. (1992). Analysis of the ionosphere-plasmasphere transport of superthermal electrons, 1. Transport in the plasmasphere. Journal of Geophysical Research 97: doi: 10.1029/92JA00319. issn: 0148-0227.

Analytic solutions to the kinetic equation which describes the transport of superthermal electrons in the plasmasphere are presented. Relations which allow the calculation of the photoelectron energy spectra and the plasmaspheric transparency are obtained. An expression for the heating rate of the thermal electron population by the superthermal electrons is also given. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1992
