Ionospheric conductance distribution and MHD wave structure: observation and model [PDF]
The ionosphere influences magnetohydrodynamic waves in the magnetosphere by damping because of Joule heating and by varying the wave structure itself.

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.

Organization of the magnetosphere during substorms [PDF]
The change in degree of organization of the magnetosphere during substorms is investigated by analyzing various geomagnetic indices, as well as interplanetary magnetic field z-component and solar wind flow speed.

The Galileo spacecraft passed close to Europa on 11 encounters, two of which (E12 and E26) came within 400 km of the surface. In E12 data, there are perturbations in field and plasma data consistent with effects of a nearby plume (Jia et al., 2018 ...

The Impact of Turbulence on Physics of the Geomagnetic Tail
There is a vast amount of evidence that suggests that the geomagnetic tail is like a turbulent wake behind an obstacle. Large-scale vortices in the wake are able to generate turbulent transport that takes place both along the plasma sheet, in the X and Y

Which Parameter Controls Ring Current Electron Dynamics
Predicting the electron population of Earth’s ring current during geomagnetic storms still remains a challenging task. In this work, we investigate the sensitivity of 10 keV ring current electrons to different driving processes, parameterised by the Kp ...

Initial POLAR MFE observation of substorm signatures in the polar magnetosphere [PDF]
This paper studies substorm influences in the polar magnetosphere using data from the POLAR magnetic field experiment (MFE). The POLAR spacecraft remains in the high altitude polar magnetosphere for extended periods around apogee.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A Statistical Study of Magnetopause Boundary Layer Energetic Electron Enhancements Using MMS
We took a survey of boundary layer (or low-latitude boundary layer) crossings by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission. Out of 250 total crossings, about half showed enhancements of high-energy (>30 keV) electrons in the FEEPS sensor and a ...
