From the inner magnetosphere to the Van Allen's radiation beltsJean-François RipollIn this colloquium, I will discuss the dynamics of the energetic electrons trapped within the Earth’s Van Allen radiation belts through observations and computations of the whole environment in which these particles evolve, starting as wide as the Earth’s inner magnetosphere and narrowing to the finest scales of local measurements from recent satellite missions. The inner magnetosphere dynamics are presented...
