Abstract Magnetic reconnection is a highly dynamic process that excites a wide variety of kinetic waves and instabilities. Transverse current sheet instabilities such as the lower‐hybrid drift and secondary drift‐kink instabilities in particular have been shown by kinetic simulations to modify the reconnection and introduce significant turbulence and ...

Inertial Alfvén Waves With Magnetosphere‐Ionosphere Coupling and Feedback
Abstract We present a theory of the ionospheric feedback instability (IFI) in which the finite‐thickness h $h$ of the ionosphere is represented by a frequency‐ and scale‐dependent height‐integrated Pedersen conductance, YI≡∑inΩ,k⊥,h, ${Y}_{\mathrm{I}}\equiv {\mathrm{\sum }}_{\text{in}}\left({\Omega },{k}_{\perp },h\right),$ electromagnetically coupled ...

Poloidal Field Line Resonances Driven by a Fast Wave
We present numerical simulations of the excitation of resonant poloidal Alfvén waves. The resulting Alfvén waves could be loosely described as “high‐m” (m is the azimuthal wave number) in as much as the azimuthal scale of the wave is much less than the ...

On resistive dissipation of Alfvén waves in an isothermal atmosphere
In this paper we will examine the reflection and dissipation of Alfvén waves, resulting from a uniform vertical magnetic field, in an inviscid, resistive and isothermal atmosphere.

Johan Svendsen and Two‐Dimensional Sonata Form
ABSTRACT This article discusses progressive formal strategies in the music of Johan Svendsen (1840–1911). Svendsen is one of Norway's foremost composers of large‐scale orchestral music, but his works have so far garnered scant attention in Anglophone scholarship.

Observing the Earth's Plasmasphere and Ionosphere From the Lunar Surface
Abstract We present the analysis of the first lunar‐based observational characterization of the Earth's plasmasphere and ionosphere using Global Navigation Satellite Systems signals tracked from the lunar surface by the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE). The Earth‐Moon geometry enables limb sounding of the plasmasphere at altitudes exceeding 3,000

The Energy Content of Alfvén Waves in the Stratified Solar Atmosphere
Alfvén waves propagating in a vertically stratified plasma, such as those traveling from the solar photosphere to the corona, are partially reflected due to the gradient in the Alfvén speed.

On the Correlation between Alfvén Waves and Auroral Radio Emissions in the Jovian System
Jupiter’s powerful aurorae reflect intense energy dissipation in the magnetosphere–ionosphere system. Recent studies reveal that solar wind compression systematically enhances auroral emission, while the mechanism is not yet fully understood.

Alfvén Wave Propagation in the Io Plasma Torus
Io, the most volcanically active body in the solar system, fuels a plasma torus around Jupiter with dissociation products of SO2 at a rate of ~1,000 kg/s.
