| Title | Magnetospheric Imaging ??? The Image Prime Mission |
| Author(s) | Burch, James L |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2003. |
| Description | VIII, 371 p. 181 illus., 118 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration (IMAGE) is a NASA Explorer mission that is the first space mission dedicated to imaging of the Earth's magnetosphere. IMAGE was launched from Vandenberg AFB into an elliptical polar orbit by a Delta II launch vehicle on March 25, 2000. The two-year prime sci?? entific mission of IMAGE began on May 25, 2000 after instrument commissioning was successfully completed. IMAGE has now been approved for operation until October 1,2005, and an additional two-year extension is now being considered by NASA. The papers in this volume represent many of the scientific results obtained dur?? ing the IMAGE prime mission and include some of the early correlative research with ground-based measurements, measurements from other spacecraft such as Cluster II, and relevant theory and modeling programs. All of the reported work is related to the overall IMAGE science objective: How does the magnetosphere respond globally to the changing conditions in the solar wind? IMAGE addresses this question with multi-spectral imaging of most of the important plasma pop?? ulations of the inner magnetosphere, combined with radio sounding of gradients of total plasma content. The new experimental techniques fall into the following areas: neutral atom imaging (NAI) over an energy range from 10 eV to 500 keY for detection of ionospheric outflow, the plasma sheet, and the ring current; far ultraviolet (FUV) imaging at 121-190 nm for detection of precipitating protons and the global aurora; extreme ultraviolet (EUV) imaging at 30 |

| Title | The Van Allen Probes Mission |
| Author(s) | Fox, Nicola;Burch, James L |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer US, 2014. |
| Description | VII, 647 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This collection of??articles provides broad and detailed information about NASA???s Van Allen Probes (formerly known as the Radiation Belt Storm Probes)??twin-spacecraft Earth-orbiting mission. The mission has the objective of??achieving predictive understanding of the??dynamic, intense, energetic,??dangerous, and presently unpredictable belts of energetic particles that are??magnetically trapped in Earth???s space environment above the atmosphere. It??documents the science of the??radiation belts and the societal benefits of achieving??predictive understanding. Detailed information is??provided about the Van Allen??Probes mission design, the spacecraft, the science investigations, and the??onboard instrumentation that must all work together to make unprecedented??measurements within a most??unforgiving environment, the core of Earth???s most??intense radiation regions. This volume is aimed at graduate??students and??researchers active in space science, solar-terrestrial interactions and studies??of the upper??atmosphere. Originally published in Space Science Reviews, Vol. 179/1-4, 2013 |

| Title | The THEMIS Mission |
| Author(s) | Burch, James L;Angelopoulos, Vassilis |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2009. |
| Description | IV, 583 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The THEMIS mission aims to determine the trigger and large-scale evolution of substorms by employing five identical micro-satellites which line up along the Earth's magnetotail to track the motion of particles, plasma, and waves from one point to another and for the first time, resolve space-time ambiguities in key regions of the magnetosphere on a global scale. The primary goal of THEMIS is to elucidate which magnetotail process is responsible for substorm onset at the region where substorm auroras map: (i) local disruption of the plasma sheet current (current disruption) or (ii) the interaction of the current sheet with the rapid influx of plasma emanating from reconnection. The probes also traverse the radiation belts and the dayside magnetosphere, allowing THEMIS to address additional baseline objectives. This volume describes the mission, the instrumentation, and the data derived from them |
