Axial Flux Evolution of Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes from 0.06 to 10 au

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs) fill much of the solar wind, but their origin and evolution are debated. We apply our recently developed, improved Grad–Shafranov algorithm for the detection and reconstruction of SMFRs to data from Parker Solar ...

Revealing the Formation of the <20 MeV Inner Proton Radiation Belt at L ∼ 2 During the 10–11 May 2024 Superstorm

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
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

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
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 ...

Physics‐Informed Neural Networks for Modeling the Martian Induced Magnetosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Understanding the magnetic field environment around Mars and its response to upstream solar wind conditions provide key insights into the processes driving atmospheric ion escape. To date, global models of Martian induced magnetosphere have been exclusively physics‐based, relying on computationally intensive simulations. For the first time, we

An examination of inter-hemispheric conjugacy in a subauroral polarization stream [PDF]

, 2012
During geomagnetically disturbed conditions the midlatitude ionosphere is subject to intense poleward directed electric fields in the dusk-midnight sector.

How the Relative Contribution of DP‐1 and DP‐2 Currents Reshapes the Global Current System During Substorms

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
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 ...

Evolution of Kelvin-Helmholtz activity on the dusk flank magnetopause [PDF]

, 2008
Our purpose is to characterize the evolution of the magnetopause Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) wave activity with changes in thickness of the adjacent boundary layer, geomagnetic latitude and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation.

Plasma Stability in Turbulent Magnetic Flux Ropes Downstream of a Collisionless Shock

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract How pre‐existing solar wind turbulence, and coherent structures such as magnetic flux ropes within it, influence the transition of plasma across a shock is still poorly understood. Recently, in situ observations from the Earth's magnetosheath have been used to study plasma stability against ion kinetic instabilities. In the turbulent flow, the

The response of the magnetosphere to the passage of a coronal mass ejection on March 20-21 1990 [PDF]

, 1997
International audienceThe geomagnetic response to the passage of a coronal mass ejection (CME) is studied. The passage of the CME resulted in a storm sudden commencement (SSC) at 2243 UT on March 20 1990 with disturbed magnetic activity during the ...
