Abstract During the geomagnetic storm on 10 May 2024, neutral density measurements from 14 Tianmu, Swarm, and GRACE‐FO satellites at ∼510 km altitude, combined with total electron content (TEC) observations, enabled the first global observational comparison of large‐scale traveling atmospheric and ionospheric disturbances (LSTADs/TIDs) via snapshots ...

Abstract We report a rare quiet‐time observation by NOAA‐18 spacecraft flying nearly along the electron isotropy boundary (IBe). Complemented by data from four nearby meridional IBe crossings of other POES spacecraft, this case study provides a novel quantitative information concerning the regular energy dependence of the loss‐cone filling ratio (Jprec/

Abstract The observations from GRACE‐FO and DMSP satellites are utilized to analyze the ion‐neutral interaction near dusk during the 10–12 May 2024 super‐storm. The horizontal plasma convection dragged the anti‐sunward wind in the polar cap and sunward winds around the auroral and subauroral regions during whole storm times.

First Observation of the Second Harmonic of Upper Band Chorus Waves Linking to Slow Z‐Mode
Abstract The Z‐mode, comprising fast and slow branches, is a ubiquitous electromagnetic wave in planetary magnetospheres. While fast Z‐mode generation is attributed to electron cyclotron maser instability, the slow Z‐mode mechanism remains unresolved.

Abstract A new proton radiation belt was identified during the geomagnetic superstorm of 10–11 May 2024. To investigate its origin, we use an MHD‐test particle simulation to model solar energetic proton (SEP) trapping and the evolution of the initial trapped proton population during the storm.

Open Magnetic Field Lines Partition Auroral Oval Segments Into Transpolar Arcs
Abstract Transpolar arcs (TPAs) are auroral structures spanning the polar cap. One type appears in conjugate hemispheres and is thought to be located on closed field lines, but how closed flux enters the open polar cap remains debated. We address this using observation and simulation of conjugate TPAs after an interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) By ...

Abstract Geomagnetic disturbances in polar regions can be decomposed into two main patterns: the Disturbance Polar (DP) 1 and 2. How their relative contribution reshapes global current system remains unclear. In this study, we classified substorms from 2010 to 2022 into weak and strong DP‐2 events based on the ratio of the eastward to westward auroral ...

Sub‐MeV Electron Precipitation Driven by EMIC Waves: New Insights From CIRBE/REPTile‐2 Measurements
Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are recognized as a key driver of relativistic (>1 MeV) electron loss in Earth's magnetosphere. Growing evidence also suggests that EMIC wave can efficiently scatter sub‐MeV electrons, although the precise energy range and the underlying physical mechanisms remain debated.

This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.
