Second-order perturbations in Alfvén waves in cold plasma approximation
The second-order amplitude perturbations driven by Alfvén waves are studied. Equations for such second-order perturbations are derived and their solutions are found. The second-order perturbations are shown to be generated by the magnetic pressure of the

On the Escape of Low-frequency Waves from Magnetospheres of Neutron Stars
We study the nonlinear decay of the fast magnetosonic (fms) into the Alfvén waves in relativistic force-free magnetohydrodynamics. The work has been motivated by models of pulsar radio emission and fast radio bursts (FRBs), in which the emission is ...

Quantifying Non‐Maxwellian Properties of Ion Populations During Reconnection at Earth's Magnetopause
Abstract We investigate ion velocity‐space features within the exhaust of magnetopause reconnection using a global hybrid‐Vlasov simulation. The Hermite transform and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) are applied to quantify the complexity of velocity‐space structures that arise during the mixing of magnetospheric and magnetosheath ion populations.

Altitude Dependence of Quasi‐Static Potential Drop: The Effect of Ionospheric Protons
Abstract Using an improved kinetic model that incorporates cold ionospheric protons and oxygen ions, we investigate the factors controlling the altitude range of the auroral acceleration region (AAR). In this model, parallel electric fields are generated via Dispersive Alfven Wave‐ Modified electron Acoustic Wave (DAW‐MEAW) coupling and sustained by ...

This diagram illustrates the wavy flow configuration of the model in a Cartesian coordinate system. It represents the heat and mass transfer characteristics of ternary hybrid nanofluids over a vertically wavy surface in the presence of an induced magnetic field and double‐diffusive mixed convection.

Abstract This study presents a high‐resolution three‐dimensional global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the historic geomagnetic storm of 10–11 May 2024, using observational data for the ACE solar wind input. This extreme event was characterized by intense solar wind dynamic pressure (∼50 nPa) and exceptionally strong interplanetary magnetic ...

Earthward O+ Injections in the Plasma Sheet Boundary Layer During Geomagnetic Storms
Abstract During geomagnetic storms, energetic ions are injected from the Earth's magnetotail along the plasma sheet boundary layer (PSBL). Owing to its off‐equatorial inclined orbit, the Arase satellite is in a prime position to observe these injections in the PSBL on the nightside at the apogee.

Abstract Ultra‐low frequency (ULF) waves with frequencies 10–140 s are a characteristic feature of the foreshock, playing important roles in transient formation, shock reformation, and particle acceleration. We utilize 23 years of Cluster data to map ULF wave power and compressibility in the vicinity of Earth's bow shock, combining Cluster data with ...

Abstract We study the development of the Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) along the dusk dayside Earth's magnetopause with and without the presence of enhanced plasma density at the shear interface. Using three‐dimensional MAGE global simulations, we establish general KHI growth rate diagrams, which depend sensitively on the transverse profiles of ...
