AbstractUnderstanding the role of plasma waves, extending from magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves at ultra-low-frequency (ULF) oscillations in the millihertz range to very-low-frequency (VLF) whistler-mode emissions at frequencies of a few kHz, is necessary in studies of sources and losses of radiation belt particles. In order to make this theoretically heavy part of the book accessible to a reader, who is not familiar with wave–particle interactions, we have divided the treatise into three chapters. In the present chapter we introduce the most important wave modes that are critical to the dynamics of radiation belts. The drivers of these waves are discussed in Chap. 10.1007/978-3-030-82167-8_5 and the roles of the wave modes as sources and losses of radiation belt particles are dealt with in Chap. 10.1007/978-3-030-82167-8_6.

<p>Thin current sheets are routinely observed in the solar wind. Here we report observations of thin current sheets and the associated plasma waves using the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. The Radio and Plasma Waves (RPW) instrument provides high-resolution measurements of the electric field, number density perturbations, and magnetic field fluctuations, which we use to identify and characterise the observed waves, while the magnetic field provided by the MAG instrument is used to characterise the current sheets. We discuss the role of current sheets in the generation of the observed waves and the effects of the waves on the current sheets.<span> </span></p>
