| Abstract | RPID5180397newnew. Thus, we conduct a statistical study of radiation belt dropouts. If PSD drops by factor >5 within a period less than 8 hours, we call it a dropout event. Based on 4 years of VAP data, we get the dropout distribution as a function of $\mu$, K, and L* and the relationship with solar wind parameters and geomagnetic parameters. The results show that high L* dropouts cover wider $\mu$, K range. The low L* dropouts mainly follow the influence regions due to EMIC wave. Few dropouts at low $\mu$, K due to injection while there are many dropouts with low $\mu$, high K, which is likely due to EMIC waves. Dropouts occurring without EMIC influence are company with stronger solar wind and magnetic activity. |
