主 题:earth’s plasmasphere dynamic global core plasma model extreme ultraviolet radiation lunar-based imaging
摘 要:The dynamic global core plasma model(DGCPM) is used in this paper to calculate the He+ density distribution of the Earth s plasmasphere and to investigate the configurations and 30.4 nm radiation properties of the *** comparisons between the simulation results and IMAGE mission observations show:That the equatorial structure of the plasmapause is mainly located near 5.5 RE and the typical scale of plasmasphere shrinking or expansion within 10 min is approximately 0.1 RE;that the plasmaspheric shoulders are formed and rotate noon-ward from the dawn sector under the conditions of strong southward turning of the interplanetary magnetic field(IMF);that the plasmaspheric plumes will rotate dawn-ward from the night sector and become narrow for the southward turning of the *** simulated images from the lunar orbit show that the plasmasphere locating within the geocentric distance of 5.5 RE corresponds to field of view(FOV) of 10.7°×10.7° for the moon-based EUV imager,and that the 30.4 nm radiation intensity of the plasmasphere is 0.1-11.4 *** plasmaspheric shoulders and plumes locating toward the moon-side are for the first time simulated with typical scale level of 0.1 RE from the side view of the *** simulated results provide an important theoretical basis for the lunar-based EUV camera design.
