Abstract
Abstract Previous statistical studies of plasmaspheric hiss investigated the averaged shape of the magnetic field power spectra at various points in the magnetosphere. However, this approach does not consider the fact that very diverse spectral shapes exist at a given L-shell and magnetic local time. Averaging the data together means that important features of the spectral shapes are lost. In this paper, we use an unsupervised machine learning technique to categorize plasmaspheric hiss. In contrast to the previous studies, this technique allows us to identify power spectra that have “similar” shapes and study their spatial distribution without averaging together vastly different spectral shapes. We show that strong negative correlations exist between the hiss frequency and bandwidth.Authors (sorted by name)
