Analysis of plasma waves observed in the inner Saturn magnetosphere [PDF]
Plasma waves observed in the Saturn magnetosphere provide an indication of the plasma population present in the rotationally dominated inner magnetosphere.

Lower hybrid cavities in the inner magnetosphere [PDF]
We present observations of lower hybrid cavities from altitudes above 10,000 km, using data from Viking and Cluster satellites. Lower hybrid cavities (LHCs) are narrow (ion gyroradius scale) density depletions with enhanced amplitude of waves in the lower hybrid frequency range, previously reported below 1750 km altitude by the Freja satellite and ...

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Magnetic signatures of plasma-depleted flux tubes in the Saturnian inner magnetosphere [PDF]
Initial Cassini observations have revealed evidence for interchanging magnetic flux tubes in the inner Saturnian magnetosphere. Some of the reported flux tubes differ remarkably by their magnetic signatures, having a depressed or enhanced magnetic ...

Observational features of charge distribution in Earth’s inner magnetosphere
Understanding the motion of charged particles in the electromagnetic field in the inner magnetosphere is essential for space science and space weather. Charge accumulation can occur due to the dipole magnetic and convective electric fields in this region.

Modeling of the Jovian Magnetosphere [PDF]
This paper presents a global model of the Jovian magnetosphere which is valid not only in the equatorial plane and near the planet, as most of the existing models are, but also at high latitudes and in the outer regions of the magnetosphere. The model

Abstract Magnetic reconnection at the dayside magnetopause is the primary pathway for transferring mass, momentum, and energy from the solar wind into the terrestrial magnetosphere. Previous studies have shown that the spatiotemporal dynamics of dayside magnetic reconnection can be inferred remotely from properties of Earth's cusps, specifically their ...

Abstract Bouncing packets are quasi‐periodic microbursts separated by the electron bounce period. Solar Anomalous and Magnetospheric Particle Explorer observations revealed relativistic (>1 MeV) inner‐belt bouncing packets with “crown,” “decaying,” and “flat” envelopes.

Excitation of Alfvén waves by modulated HF heating of the ionosphere, with application to FAST observations [PDF]
During the operation of the EISCAT high power facility (heater) at Tromsø, Norway, on 8 October 1998, the FAST spacecraft made electric field and particle observations in the inner magnetosphere at 0.39 Earth radii above the heated ionospheric ...

Abstract Along with magnetic reconnection, Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) waves are the main mechanisms controlling the solar wind‐magnetosphere interaction, enabling plasma transport into the magnetosphere due to secondary reconnection, diffusion and wave‐particle interactions.
