Global electric field determination in the Earth's outer magnetosphere using charged particles [PDF]

Although many properties of the Earth's magnetosphere have been measured and quantified in the past 30 years since it was discovered, one fundamental (for a zeroeth order magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium) measurement was made infrequently and with ...

High Latitude Dayside Aurora Ionospheric Electrodynamics Using Data Assimilation

Earth and Space Science
Under favorable conditions, the interaction between the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and Earth's magnetic field can result in a dayside aurora at magnetic latitudes above approximately 80°, referred to as the high latitude dayside Aurora (HiLDA ...

On the Properties of Ionospheric Convection

, 2009
The solar wind interaction with the magnetosphere-ionosphere system continuously drives plasma convection in the polar regions of the ionosphere. The flow velocity and the shape of the convection pattern are closely dependent on the interplanetary conditions, in particular the direction of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). The main driver of the

High-latitude ionospheric winds related to solar-interplanetary conditions [PDF]

Treated jointly, two recent results imply that the distribution of winds in the polar ionosphere should change as a function of the direction of the interplanetary magnetic field.
