Failures of Minimum Variance Analysis in Diagnosing Planar Structures in Space

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Minimum variance analysis of the magnetic field (MVAB), among various techniques of planar structure analysis, is most widely used for its numerical simplicity and loose requirements for data.

Analyzing Geomagnetic Data From the Dusheti Observatory During the Intense Magnetic Storms of 2024

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetic storms, intense disturbances in the Earth's magnetosphere, pose risks to both technology and human activity in space. In this study, we analyzed geomagnetic field measurements from the Dusheti Observatory in Georgia during the intense geomagnetic storms of March 3, March 24, and 11 May 2024.

Maximum Aligned Directional Derivative (MADD) Technique for Planar Structure Analysis in Space

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Interplanetary discontinuities are the most common intermittent structures in the solar winds, whose jump conditions conform to the Rankine–Hugoniot relations. The identification and analysis of such planar structures rely on an accurate determination of

Multiwavelength Study on Solar and Interplanetary Origins of the Strongest Geomagnetic Storm of Solar Cycle 23

, 2011
We study the solar sources of an intense geomagnetic storm of solar cycle 23 that occurred on 20 November 2003, based on ground- and space-based multiwavelength observations.

Assessing Magnetic Fluctuations Effects in the South American Sector in Relation to Global Variations Using Ksa Index, Kp Index, and Hybrid Formats During Quiet Times Across the Seasons of the 2020 Solar Minimum

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetic indices can be used to quantify variations in geomagnetic activity caused by Sun‐Earth interactions across the magnetosphere and ionosphere. The global Kp index is widely used as a global geomagnetic indicator, but it is based mostly on the Northern Hemisphere with no contributions from South American observatories.

Statistical Characteristics of Electron Precipitation During HSS‐ and ICME‐Driven Storms Observed by the EISCAT Radar

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The 1–100 keV electron precipitation during storm time has been studied by applying the updated ELSPEC inversion method to field‐aligned electron density profiles measured by the EISCAT Tromsø radar at L = 6.5. The statistical properties of peak energy, total energy flux, and total number flux as a function of MLT have been studied for the two

Response of convection electric fields in the magnetosphere to IMF orientation change [PDF]

, 2009
[1] The transient response of convection electric fields in the inner magnetosphere to southward turning of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is investigated using in‐situ electric field observations by the CRRES and Akebono spacecraft.

Ionosphere‐Thermosphere Coupling in the Northern Polar Region During the May 2024 Geomagnetic Superstorm

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The May 2024 superstorm, as the most intense geomagnetic storm since 2003, caused a variety of disturbances in the magnetosphere‐ionosphere‐thermosphere system. This study investigates the long‐lasting electron density depletion in the polar region and the underlying ionosphere‐thermosphere coupling, based on a comprehensive set of ...
