Detection of High‐Latitude Magnetic Reconnection Between the Northward Interplanetary Magnetic Field and a Closed Magnetic Field Wedge Linked to a Transpolar Arc

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Transpolar arcs (TPAs) describe a subset of auroral emissions observed poleward of the Earth's main auroral ovals when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is northward. These emissions are thought to align with a “wedge” of closed magnetic field lines extending to the high‐latitude boundary of the Earth's magnetosphere, where they are ...

A multi-spacecraft survey of magnetic field line draping in the dayside magnetosheath [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2005
When the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) encounters the Earth's magnetosphere, it is compressed and distorted. This distortion is known as draping, and plays an important role in the interaction between the IMF and the geomagnetic field.

Global Survey of Whistler Mode Waves in the Earth's Magnetosheath Using THEMIS Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract While it is known that whistler mode emissions are frequently detected in Earth's magnetosheath, their properties and dependence on solar wind conditions are not fully understood yet. In this study, we present the global distribution of whistler mode waves in the magnetosheath and their dependence on solar wind parameters, based on 7 years of ...

The Effect of Fast Solar Wind on Ion Distribution Downstream of Earth’s Bow Shock

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The solar wind gets thermalized and compressed when crossing a planetary bow shock, forming the magnetosheath. The angle between the upstream magnetic field and the shock normal vector separates the quasi-parallel from the quasi-perpendicular ...

Two‐Dimensional Motions of Diffuse Auroral Patches Under Upstream Dynamic Pressure Enhancements of the Bow Shock

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract In this study, we identified 51 dayside diffuse auroral patches and examined their two‐dimensional evolutions by using the Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms probes and the ground‐based all‐sky imager at the South Pole.

Influence of the Earthward and Tailward Ion Flows on the Lunar Surface Water in the Magnetotail

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Earth wind, namely the particles from the Earth's magnetotail, is an important source of lunar water. Besides tailward flow incident on the lunar nearside when the Moon is in the magnetotail, there exists earthward flow bombarding the farside, affecting the distribution and preservation of lunar water.

An Open‐Source Python Version of Power Spectral Density Periodicity Detection and Background Estimation Using the Adaptive Multitaper Method

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The adaptive Multitaper Method (aMTM) is a Fourier analysis‐based technique that produces a power spectral density (PSD) with a user‐defined frequency resolution, reduces variance associated with standard digital Fourier Transform (FT) algorithms, and minimizes spectral power leakage.

Phenomenological Evaluation of the Electron Density‐Based Péclet Number of Near‐Earth Solar Wind Turbulence

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The electron density‐based Péclet number has been measured for the first time in the solar wind, alongside a measure of the magnetic Reynolds number. The Péclet number is an important characteristic of energy and particle transport. High Péclet numbers indicate that particle advection dominates diffusion of energy.
