Soft X‐Ray Emission From Saturn's Magnetosheath II: Solar Wind Driving

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Saturn's magnetosphere is dominated by Enceladus‐sourced neutrals, which spread throughout the system into the magnetosheath. The neutrals can charge exchange with highly charged solar wind ions, causing soft X‐ray emission (<2 ${< } 2$ keV) upon de‐excitation of the ion.

Dynamics for geomagnetic pulsations, field-aligned currents, and airglow at mid-latitudes within substorm activations during superstorms

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
Within substorm activations during two superstorms (2000 and 2003) from the observations at mid-latitude geomagnetic observatories, we study short-period irregular geomagnetic pulsations and airglow in the 557.7 nm and 630.0 nm atomic oxygen emission ...

Soft X‐Ray Emission From Saturn's Magnetosheath Part I: 3D Modeling From MHD Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Saturn's magnetosheath hosts a mixed population of water‐group neutrals and solar wind plasma. We present a 3‐D model of soft X‐ray emission by ion‐neutral charge exchange in the near‐equatorial magnetosheath. The model employs MHD simulation data of plasma properties at Saturn, Enceladus‐genic neutral populations extrapolated from existing ...

Simultaneous Measurements of Variations in the Artificial Airglow and the Total Electron Content of the Ionosphere Caused by Powerful Radio Waves of "Sura'' Facility [PDF]

Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки, 2016
The results of simultaneous observations of variations in the artificial airglow in the red line of the optical spectrum of atomic oxygen (630 nm) and the total electron content (TEC) of the ionosphere measured along the propagation paths of the ...

Seasonal variations of O₂ atmospheric and OH(6−2) airglowand temperature at mid-latitudes from SATI observations [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2004
More than 3 years of airglow observations with a Spectral Airglow Temperature Imager (SATI) installed at the Sierra Nevada Observatory (37.06°N, 3.38°W) at 2900m height have been analyzed.

Drivers of Mid‐Latitude Quiet‐Time Longitude Variations in Ionospheric Density

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The aim of this study is to provide an observational benchmark of mid‐latitude quiet‐time variability in winds, O/N2, and TEC across longitude and local time to provide a foundation for future model–data comparison studies. The quiet‐time ionospheric structure is not uniform but rather exhibits pronounced longitudinal and local‐time ...

Detection of Equatorial Plasma Bubbles Using the COSMIC‐2 Rate of TEC Index

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are large‐scale plasma depletion structures that can disrupt Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and other space‐based technologies. Several instruments have been employed to study EPB dynamics, with Total Electron Content (TEC) and Rate of TEC change Index (ROTI) data standing out as valuable parameters

Nitrogen oxides and the airglow

, 2021
The chemospheric processes lead to various possibilities for description of the contribution of nitrogen oxides in the airglow. An excitation of the Vegard-Kaplan system is indicated when nitric oxide is formed by a three-body collision process involving

Constraining Electron‐Impact Ionization of O2 Through UV Aurora Observations at Ganymede

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract While photoionization rates of Ganymede's O2 ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ dominated atmosphere are well constrained, the contribution of electron‐impact ionization is rather uncertain. Previous quantitative estimates have relied on assumptions about densities and energy distributions of precipitating electrons, or on rare spacecraft measurements that ...
