3 Li et al., 1993 Oxygen ions are diffused by the drift-bounce resonance with convection electric field (simulation). Drift-bounce resonance of O + ion contributes to the acceleration or deceleration of O + ions [e.g., Li et al., 1993; Yang et al., 2011]. Mitani et al., 2018 Mitani et al. (2018) proposed that the drift-bounce resonance contribute to the deeper penetration of > 200 kev O + ions into the inner magnetosphere.

14 Flux oscillations of H + and O + ions at > 50 kev are caused by drift resonance and those of O + ions at < 20 kev are caused by bounce resonance. We simultaneously found the drift resonance and bounce resonance of O + ions at multiple energies in the nightside inner magnetosphere. The enhancement of O + /H + flux ratio at low-energy band ( 23.3 kev) is mainly caused by selective acceleration of O + ions due to the bounce resonance for O + ions ( 18.6 kev) Mitani et al. (2018) proposed that the drift-bounce resonance contribute to the deeper penetration of > 200 kev O + ions into the inner magnetosphere. The solar wind may generate the Pc5 wave through K-H instability and it feeds energy to the O + ions through the bounce resonance. Energy transfer Solar wind ULF waves Resonance O + ions?

16 Fundamental Pc5 wave and a Pc4 wave were observed by Arase, MMS1, and ground stations (TIK and PBK) in the postmidnight region in the storm recovery phase on 27 March The Pc5 waves is considered to be excited by solar wind. m-number of the Pc5 wave is estimated by satellite observation and ground observation to be m=-10 to -15. The e - flux oscillation is not caused by the drift-bounce resonance, while, large ion flux oscillations are attributed to the drift resonance for H + and O + ion (> 50 kev), and to the bounce resonance for O + ion (< 20 kev). O + /H + flux ratio shows enhancements corresponding to the O + ion flux oscillations, which suggest the selective acceleration of O + ions.
