Seeking for Loss- Cone distribution

This task started one month ago when I send the following e-mail to  Andrew.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

I found the effect (higher concentration at pitch angles of 0  and 90 than at 180 degrees)you mentioned in several graph through the year for the 3 of the four S/C: December (days 339, 344, 348, 353, 356), January (011, 013, 016, 018) June (168, 168,170,175,185) July

Cluster 3 showed a opposite behavior during those days.

You can see the plots HERE:

ii I was trying to confirm from where we I can get the Footpoint Magnetic Latitude and so plotted the Invariant Magnetic Latitude (JSOC), Magnetic Local Time(JSOC), Magnetic Latitude (AUX) and Magnetic Radius (AUX) on the spectrograms, but the data from JSOC do not seems to correspond to the foot point data we need.


The plots here:
http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/missions/peace_ops/kjg/AAR/cmp1/index.php
Magnetic Latitude (JSOC) on HEEA@180
Magnetic Local Time(JSOC)on LEEA@180
Magnetic Latitude (AUX) on LEEA@0
Magnetic Radius (AUX) on LEEA@0

(187,189,192).

• Data from Dec. 2009 is not available yet.
• Currently Invariant Latitude (JSOC) and Spacecraft Local Magnetic time(JSOC) are available from March to April only.
• Should I prepare an evaluation of the assessment made in i?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

they way I was looking for loss-cone distribution was only by comparing the concetration at 0 and 90 degrees to those at 180 degrees. I conclude that in not all th periods mentioned by our folks in Iowa  the difference in concentration (0 and 90 > 180) was present. This probalbly means that other distribution are present during those periods.

Loss-Cone

December 2008	January2009	June 2009	July 2009	December 2009
339	011	168	187	339
344	013	170	189	346
348	016	175	192
353	018	185
356

  Note: days in bolds indicate those days mentioned by Christopher (from iowa) in his report May2009. however there are days mentioned in this report for which I didn't find the same effect(Janury 4th) or we dont have data (March 26).
