First Circular of the PWING-ERG conference and school on the inner magnetosphere (ISEE, Nagoya University, March 7-12, 2021)

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the PWING-ERG conference and school on dynamic variation of particles and waves in the inner magnetosphere and ionosphere using satellite and ground-network observations and modeling, as below. The inner magnetosphere contains plasma particles in wide energy ranges from the plasmasphere (electron volts) to the radiation belts (mega-electron volts). 
The particles in the inner magnetosphere are accelerated and lost as interacting with electromagnetic waves. In this conference, we invite presentations on recent advances of ground-based network and satellite missions as well as modeling efforts to understand acceleration and loss of plasma in the inner magnetosphere and their consequences in the ionosphere. Graduate-course students and young scientists are welcome to join the school which will held before the conference. 

This conference and school is held as the completion of the PWING project and as the 5th year anniversary of the ERG (Arase) mission.
