Whistler Mode Waves

<p>With observations of Van Allen Probes, we report a rare event of quasiperiodic whistler-mode waves in the dayside magnetosphere on 20 February 2014 as a response to the enhancement of solar wind dynamic pressure (P<sub>sw</sub>). The intensities of whistler-mode waves and anisotropy distributions of energetic electrons exhibit a ~5 mins quasi-periodic pattern, which is consistent with the period of synchronously observed compressional ULF waves. Based on the wave growth rates calculation, we suggest that the quasiperiodic whistler-mode waves could be generated by the energetic electrons with modulated anisotropy. The Poynting vectors of the whistler-mode waves alternate between northward and southward direction with a period twice the compressional ULF wave's near the equator, also exhibiting a clear modulated feature. This is probably because the intense ULF waves slightly altered the location of the local magnetic minimum, and thus modulated the relative direction of the wave source region respect to the spacecraft. Current results provide a direct evidence that the P<sub>sw</sub> play an important role in the generation and propagation of whistler-mode waves in the Earth's magnetosphere.</p>
