DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mahassin Nemair (University of KawZulu-Natal)\nDurin
 g the onset of a substorm\, a burst of energetic (10-100 keV) electrons is
  injected into the inner\nmagnetosphere. The subsequent motion of these el
 ectrons is dictated by their energy\, pitch angle\nand the Earth's magneti
 c field geometry. More specifically\, if the Earth's magnetic field is not
 \nvarying rapidly then the three adiabatic invariants associated with each
  of the electrons' periodic\nmotions (drift\, bounce and gyration) are con
 served. In this work we study the motion of electrons in\nthe Earth's magn
 etic field. A realistic magnetic field geometry is employed which depends 
 on\nconditions in the solar wind by applying time varying magnetic filed c
 alculated from Tsyganenko\nmodel. The initial electron source location is 
 presumed to be at L = 9 at midnight. The trajectories\nof electrons with e
 nergies of 10-100 KeV are studied using Tsyganenko model of the\nmagnetosp
 here. Results are compared with other model simulated .\n\nhttps://events.
