The Earth's inner magnetosphere contains different charged particle populations, such as the Van Allen radiation belts, ring current particles, and plasmaspheric particles. Their energy range varies from eV to several MeV, and the interplay among the charged particles provide feedback mechanisms which couple all those populations together. Ring current particles can generate various waves, for example, EMIC waves and chorus waves, which play important roles in the dynamic evolution of the radiation belts through wave-particle interactions. Ring current electrons can be accelerated to relativistic radiation belt electrons. Plasmaspheric particles can also affect these processes. In addition, precipitation of ring current and radiation belt particles will influence the ionosphere, while up-flows of ionospheric particles can affect dynamics in the inner magnetosphere. Understanding these coupling processes is crucial. We invite presentations on recent progress concerning these coupling processes. Contributions from all relevant fields, including theoretical studies, numerical modeling, observations from satellite and ground-based missions, such as Van Allen Probes, Arase, THEMIS, MMS, Cluster, SuperDARN, magnetometer, optical imagers, and IS-radars, are welcome.
