Abstract
<p>Whistler chorus waves cause energetic electron precipitations into the Earth’s atmosphere, and signatures of precipitations are observed as diffuse,<br>pulsating aurora, and microbursts of energetic electrons. In this talk, we present our model that propagating chorus waves cause wide energy electron precipitations and relativistic electron microbursts are a high-energy tail of the pulsating aurora electrons. The chorus waves can resonate with tens keV electrons near the magnetic equator, which causes the pulsating aurora emissions, while the chorus waves can resonate with sub-relativistic/relativistic electrons at the off-equator, which cause the microbursts of energetic electrons. Moreover, we discuss that relativistic electrons cause a significant ozone destruction at the middle atmosphere by conjugate observations of Arase, ground-based observations, SIC ion chemistry simulation.</p>
