Abstract

We report in situ observations from the Cluster and FAST spacecraft showing the deposition of energy into the auroral ionosphere from broadband ULF waves in the cusp and low‐latitude boundary layer. A comparison of the wave Poynting flux with particle energy and flux at both satellites indicates tha...
