Polar and Cluster observations of a dayside inverted-V during conjunction [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2007 We investigate particle and fields data during a conjunction of the Polar and Cluster spacecraft. This conjunction occurs near the dayside cusp boundary layer when a dayside inverted-V was observed in the particle data of both satellites.

Dynamical processes in space: Cluster results [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2013 After 12 years of operations, the Cluster mission continues to successfully fulfil its scientific objectives. The main goal of the Cluster mission, comprised of four identical spacecraft, is to study in three dimensions small-scale plasma structures ...

An Integrated Nonlinear Analysis (INA) Software for Space Plasma Turbulence
Earth and Space Science, 2023 We built an integrated nonlinear analysis software (INA)‐designed to study space plasma turbulence and intermittency. The MATLAB programming environment was used for the algorithmic development and implementation of methods for spectral analysis ...

Spatial and temporal characteristics of poloidal waves in the terrestrial plasmasphere: a CLUSTER case study [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2007 Oscillating magnetic field lines are frequently observed by spacecraft in the terrestrial and other planetary magnetospheres. The CLUSTER mission is a very suitable tool to further study these Alfvén waves as the four CLUSTER spacecraft provide for an

Cluster magnetotail observations of a tailward-travelling plasmoid at substorm expansion phase onset and field aligned currents in the plasma sheet boundary layer [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 We present data from both ground- and space-based instruments for a substorm event which occurred on 5 October 2002, with an expansion phase onset time of 02:50 UT determined from the ground magnetometer data.

Accuracy of multi-point boundary crossing time analysis [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2011 Recent multi-spacecraft studies of solar wind discontinuity crossings using the timing (boundary plane triangulation) method gave boundary parameter estimates that are significantly different from those of the well-established single-spacecraft ...

Cluster electron observations of the separatrix layer during traveling compression regions [PDF]
, 2005 [ 1] We present Cluster 4-point observations of electrons during traveling compression regions ( TCRs) on 19 September 2001. The electron and \B\ signatures vary with distance from the plasma sheet, confirming that transient plasma sheet bulges propagate

Coordinated interhemispheric SuperDARN radar observations of the ionospheric response to flux transfer events observed by the Cluster spacecraft at the high-latitude magnetopause [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2003 At 10:00 UT on 14 February 2001, the quartet of ESA Cluster spacecraft were approaching the Northern Hemisphere high-latitude magnetopause in the post-noon sector on an outbound trajectory. At this time, the interplanetary magnetic field incident

Magnetopause current as seen by Cluster [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 The four-spacecraft, magnetic field measurements on Cluster can be combined to produce an accurate determination of the electric current in the magnetopause boundary during stable magnetopause crossings.
