plasmaspheren.

Brit.

/ˈplazməsfɪə/, U.S.

/ˈplæzməˌsfɪ(ə)r/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: plasma n., sphere n.

Etymology: < plasma n. + sphere n. Compare plasmapause n.

Atmospheric Physics.

A roughly toroidal region surrounding and thought to rotate with the earth at latitudes away from the poles, containing a relatively dense plasma of low-energy electrons and protons; an analogous region around another planet. Cf. plasmapause n.

1966 D. L. Carpenter in Jrnl. Geophysical Res. 71 695/1 With regard to nomenclature, the word ‘plasmapause’ will be used when the three-dimensionality of the knee phenomenon is emphasized... The word ‘plasmasphere’ will be used to indicate the dense region inside the plasmapause, and ‘plasma trough’ to indicate the tenuous region outside.

1971 New Scientist 1 July 8/1 The work..led to this detection of the Jovian plasmasphere from the now well-known modulation of Jupiter's radio emission caused by Io.

1974 McGraw-Hill Yearbk. Sci. & Technol. 345/2 The characteristic changes in size and shape of the plasmasphere which are observed by satellites and by ground-based vlf measurements have a direct effect on the dynamics of the F region of the ionosphere.

1994 Science 10 June 1531/3 The Magnetospheric Imager working group proposes capturing the extreme-ultraviolet glow given off by singly-charged helium ions in the plasmasphere as they absorb and re-emit sunlight.
