Model Description
The VERB model calculates the distribution function of the electron radiation belt in three dimensions: one in a spatial coordinate (L*), and two are in phase space (pitch angle and particle energy).

The model advances the time-dependent evolution of the electron distribution using the Fokker-Planck equation with pitch angle and energy diffusion coefficients representing field-aligned wave propagation for dayside and nightside chorus, plasmaspheric hiss and electomagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves. The diffusion coefficients depend on the planetary K (Kp) index, which is the primary time-dependent model input.

The diffusion equation (Eq. 6 in Subbotin and Shprits, 2009), is evaluated between 1 ≤ L* ≤ 7 in an energy range from 0.01 MeV < E < 10 MeV at L*=7 and 0.05 MeV ≤ E ≤ 24 MeV at L*=4. Larger energies are considered at lower L* values.

Phase space densities at the atmosphere (L*=1) are set to zero to represent losses. Time-dependent particle flux observations at geosynchronous orbit can be used at the outer boundary (L*=7). The default flux distribution function is an exponential fit to a typical, stationary energy spectrum.
