A Multi‐Event Comparison of dB/dt Resulting From Omega Band Aurora

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Omega bands are an auroral form occurring in the dawn sector which cause magnetic perturbations on the ground as they drift eastwards. If these changes in the magnetic field are large, omega bands can become a space weather hazard as the corresponding geomagnetically induced currents have the potential to cause damage to ground based ...

Currents in the Martian Ionosphere: Cases Without Strong Crustal Magnetic Fields

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Martian ionosphere hosts complex current systems driven both by solar wind interactions and neutral wind dynamo processes. While the global patterns of these current systems have been statistically examined, their detailed structures and orientations remain poorly constrained.

Improving Geomagnetic Perturbation Forecasts in the Southern Hemisphere via Kernel‐Based Encoding of Mirror Symmetry

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate forecasting of geomagnetic perturbations is essential for assessing space weather risk of geomagnetic activities. Thanks to decades of magnetometer observations from world‐wide distributed networks and upstream solar wind observations at L1, data‐driven modeling of global geomagnetic perturbations has become increasingly feasible ...

Evolutionary Dynamics of Counterhelical Magnetic Flux Ropes

The Astrophysical Journal
Upon interaction, a pair of magnetic flux ropes can merge to form a new pair, each consisting of opposite helicity along their axis. Magnetic helicity along such new structures may annihilate and release the energy of the azimuthal magnetic field.

Optimization Algorithm for Determining the Source Surface Radius Based on Parker Solar Probe In Situ Measurements From Encounters 1 to 19

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The Potential Field Source Surface (PFSS) extrapolation is a method for estimating the large scale coronal magnetic field from photospheric magnetograms. The source surface serves as the outer boundary of its solution domain, and is typically a spherical surface.

An Ionospheric Storm Scale Index Based on TEC: Comparative Analysis for China Region

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Defining a standardized ionospheric storm scale is challenging given the ionosphere's inherent complexity and susceptibility to multiple driving factors. In this study, a novel ionospheric storm scale (ISS) index is developed based on statistical analysis of total electron content (TEC) data from 257 ground‐based GNSS stations across China ...

Predicting Geomagnetic Activity in the Ascending and Declining Phases of the Solar Cycle

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Most predictions of space climate, that is, the long‐term behavior of the solar‐terrestrial environment, have focused on forecasting the 11‐year sunspot cycle. Geomagnetic activity, on the other hand, has mainly been predicted in shorter, space weather timescales of up to days to weeks.

AI Challenge for Satellite Tracking and Orbit Resilience Modeling (STORM‐AI): Data Set, Design, and Results

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Precise thermospheric density forecasting is critical for mitigating satellite drag in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), but traditional empirical models such as MSIS and JB2008 can fail during geomagnetic storms. To evaluate whether AI can better capture this transient behavior, the 2025 MIT ARCLab Prize for AI Innovation in Space asked participants to ...

Comparison of Solar Wind Current Sheets in the Inner Heliosphere

The Astrophysical Journal
The solar wind is filled with intense current sheets (magnetic field discontinuities) that host multiple instabilities and may undergo magnetic reconnection, a basic process for plasma heating and charged particle acceleration.

Real‐Time Prediction of Two Geomagnetic Storms Using Solar Orbiter as a Far Upstream Solar Wind Monitor

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We present the first real‐time predictions of coronal mass ejection (CME) magnetic structure and resulting geomagnetic impact at Earth for two events using far‐upstream observations from Solar Orbiter during March 2024. While our approach assumes idealized conditions for CME propagation and scaling, in situ magnetic field data from upstream ...
