Abstract

This paper highlights significant advances in plasmaspheric wave research with CLUSTER and IMAGE observations. On one hand, the multipoint view of the four CLUSTER satellites, a unique capability, has enabled the estimation of wave characteristics impossible to derive from single spacecraft measurements.

On the other hand, the IMAGE experiments have enabled to relate large-scale plasmaspheric density structures with wave observations and provide radio soundings of the plasmasphere with unprecedented details
