Abstract
⺠For high energy H+ ions all geocoronal H models predict similar decay rates. ⺠For low energy ions, the decay rate varies significantly between the models. ⺠The decay rate of ring current ions is pitch angle dependent. ⺠Ions that bounce farther decay faster yielding higher ENA fluxes closer to Earth. ⺠Synthetic ENA images are very sensitive to the geocoronal H density distribution.
