Spatial dependence of magnetopause energy transfer: Cluster measurements verifying global simulations [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2011
We investigate the spatial variation of magnetopause energy conversion and transfer using Cluster spacecraft observations of two magnetopause crossing events as well as using a global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation GUMICS-4.

Impact of Solar Wind Depression on the Dayside Magnetosphere under Northward Interplanetary Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present a follow up study of the sensitivity of the Earth's magnetosphere to solar wind activity using a particles-in-cell model [Baraka and Ben Jaffel, 2007], but here during northward IMF.

Four-spacecraft determination of magnetopause orientation, motion and thickness: comparison with results from single-spacecraft methods [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2004
In this paper, we use Cluster data from one magnetopause event on 5 July 2001 to compare predictions from various methods for determination of the velocity, orientation, and thickness of the magnetopause current layer. We employ established as well as

Magnetic Field Gradient Across the Flank Magnetopause

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Magnetic pressure inside the magnetopause is usually balanced with a sum of thermal plasma and magnetic pressures on the magnetosheath side. However, observations reveal that the magnetosheath magnetic field can be frequently larger than that in the ...

First simultaneous observations of flux transfer events at the high-latitude magnetopause by the cluster spacecraft and pulsed radar signatures in the conjugate ionosphere by the CUTLASS and EISCAT radars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Cluster magnetic field data are studied during an outbound pass through the post-noon high-latitude magnetopause region on 14 February 2001. The onset of several minute perturbations in the magnetospheric field was observed in conjunction with a ...

Coordinated polar spacecraft, geosynchronous spacecraft, and ground-based observations of magnetopause processes and their coupling to the ionosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2004
In this paper, we present in-situ observations of processes occurring at the magnetopause and vicinity, including surface waves, oscillatory magnetospheric field lines, and flux transfer events, and coordinated observations at geosynchronous orbit by ...

Global MHD simulation of flux transfer events at the high-latitude magnetopause observed by the cluster spacecraft and the SuperDARN radar system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A global magnetohydrodynamic numerical simulation is used to study the large-scale structure and formation location of flux transfer events (FTEs) in synergy with in situ spacecraft and ground-based observations. During the main period of interest on the

A time-dependent three-dimensional dayside magnetopause model based on quasi-elastodynamic theory [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
The interaction between the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere is a critical area of research in space weather and space physics. Accurate determination of the magnetopause position is essential for understanding magnetospheric dynamics. While numerous

20 Years of Cluster Observations: The Magnetopause [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2021
AbstractThe terrestrial magnetopause forms the boundary between the solar wind plasma with its embedded interplanetary magnetic field on one side, and the terrestrial magnetosphere, dominated by Earth's dipole field, on the other side. It is therefore a key region for the transfer of mass, momentum, and energy from the solar wind to the magnetosphere ...
