A general relation between the energy of trapped particles and the disturbance field near the Earth
Abstract
The disturbance field caused by charged particles trapped in the earth's magnetosphere is fairly uniform near the earth. Its value at the earth's center, ΔHz(0), which can be calculated easily, is therefore a good approximation for the field at the surface. Several years ago, Dessler and Parker derived for two special pitch-angle distributions of particles the simple relation ΔHz(0) = -2E/3Em between ΔHz(0) and the total energy of the particles, E. (H0 and Em are constants denoting the horizontal component of the main field at the earth's equator and the total energy of the main field external to the earth, respectively.) It is shown in this paper that this relation is applicable for any steady configuration of trapped particles, regardless of their pitch-angle distribution.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
