We discuss the motion and structure of the magnetopause/boundary layer observed by Cluster in response to a joint tangential discontinuity/vortex sheet (TD/VS) observed by the Advanced Composition Explorer spacecraft on 7 ...

In this study we investigate the response of the equatorial F layer to disturbance zonal electric field associated with IMF (interplanetary magnetic field) variations dominated by a strong northward Bz episode during the ...

Equatorial counterelectrojet (CEJ) events are analyzed in association with changes in the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), polar cap potential (PCP), and electric field measured in the equatorial ionosphere. In one ...

On 7 December 2000, Cluster made an extended outbound radial traversal of the duskside magnetopause boundary layer. The long duration of the crossing, during which Cluster spent several hours within 2RE of the nominal ...

The effects of super geomagnetic storm of 6 April 2000 on E and F-regions of the ionosphere at Thumba (India) and at Jicamarca (Peru) are studied. The geomagnetic storm started at 1630 hrs UT on 6 April 2000 with sudden ...

This paper reformulates the Volland–Stern model, separating contributions from corotation and convection to predict electric field penetration of the inner magnetosphere using data from the Advanced Composition Explorer ...

During November 11–16, 2003, the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz oscillated between northward and southward directions, which suggests discontinuous magnetic reconnection associated with the multiple pulses‐like ...

Our purpose is to characterize the evolution of the magnetopause Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) wave activity with changes in thickness of the adjacent boundary layer, geomagnetic latitude and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) ...

This study tries to bring out the fact that storm time substorms can compete and at times significantly contribute to the geomagnetically disturbed time prompt penetration electric field effects on low and equatorial ...
