Global-scale magnetosphere convection driven by dayside magnetic reconnection [PDF]

Nature Communications
Plasma convection on a global scale is a fundamental feature of planetary magnetosphere. The Dungey cycle explains that steady-state convection within the closed part of the magnetosphere relies on magnetic reconnection in the nightside magnetospheric ...

Controlling of merging electric field and IMF magnitude on storm-time changes in thermospheric mass density [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2013
The controls of merging electrical field, Em, and IMF (interplanetary magnetic field) magnitude, B, on the storm-time changes in upper thermospheric mass density are statistically investigated using GRACE accelerometer observations and the OMNI data ...

Next generation magnetic field measurements from low-earth orbit satellites enable enhanced space weather operations

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Large-scale current systems in the ionosphere and the magnetosphere are intimately controlled by the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction and the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling.

Is Our Understanding of Solar-Wind/Magnetosphere Coupling Satisfactory?

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
An assessment of our physics-based understanding of solar-wind/magnetosphere coupling finds that the understanding is not complete. Solar-wind/magnetosphere coupling is foundational to magnetospheric physics and it is a key to comprehending and ...

Observations of a Mini‐Magnetosphere Above the Martian Crustal Magnetic Fields

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Mars is typically regarded as a non‐magnetic planet. Currents in the Martian ionosphere generate a Venus‐like induced magnetosphere which deflects the solar wind flows and piles up the interplanetary magnetic fields.

Reconsideration on the concept model of throat aurora

地球与行星物理论评, 2022
The solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling driven by the solar wind is a systematic process that involves the buffering of magnetosheath and the response and feedback of magnetosphere and ionosphere.

Inner southern magnetosphere observation of Mercury via SERENA ion sensors in BepiColombo mission

Nature Communications, 2022
Mercury’s southern inner magnetosphere is an unexplored region as it was not observed by earlier space missions. In October 2021, BepiColombo mission has passed through this region during its first Mercury flyby.

Open Magnetic Fields in the Martian Magnetosphere Revealing Dipole-like Intrinsic Magnetic Fields at Mars

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Mars’s magnetosphere is hybrid, having contributions from both an induced magnetosphere like Venus and the localized crustal magnetic fields. However, the planetary fields also include large-scale, more global components.

SIMULATION STUDY OF THE ENERGETIC NEUTRAL ATOM (ENA) IMAGING MONITORING OF THE GEOMAGNETOSPHERE ON A LUNAR BASE

Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2021
Since the moon’s revolution cycle is exactly the same as its rotation cycle, we can only see the moon always facing Earth in the same direction. Based on the clean particle radiation environment of the moon, a neutral atomic telemetry base station could ...

Ionospheric conductance distribution and MHD wave structure: observation and model [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 1998
The ionosphere influences magnetohydrodynamic waves in the magnetosphere by damping because of Joule heating and by varying the wave structure itself.
