Schematic illustration of bifurcating energetic electron belt (tens of keV) caused by VLF transmitters

Caption

(a) Electron fluxes before (left side) and after (right side) resonant wave-particle interactions with VLF transmitter waves. (b) Variations of radial energetic electron flux profile from a typical (single-peak) structure to a bifurcated (double-peak) belt.
