Abstract

Field line resonances in the magnetosphere have received much attention. By using an extremely simplified model we examine the circumstances under which finite disturbance amplitude solutions of the coupled wave equation can be obtained in the vicinity of the resonant field line. General features of solutions are noted and the relevance of recent experimental work to the problem is pointed out. The observed latitude dependence of polarisation provides strong evidence of the role of resonating field lines as
