Induced Proton Precipitations from the Inner Radiation Belt Registered in Oceania
Events of induced proton precipitations from the inner radiation belt have been detected. They accompanied almost a half (11) of 25 anomalous electron precipitations recorded onboard the Meteor-M No. 2 satellite in 2014−2022 in Oceania at low latitudes in the morning hours of local time under quiet geomagnetic conditions. It is surmised that such events could be provoked by proton fall into cyclotron resonance with low-frequency radiation stimulated by a mobile ionospheric heater. The observed effects in anomalous electron precipitations which may be interpreted in the framework of the mobile ionospheric heater conception are also discussed.
