Magnetohydrodynamic waves in the pulsar magnetosphere [PDF]
, 2011 MHD waves can be responsible for plasma fluctuations and short-term variations of the pulsar emission. We consider the properties of plane and cylindrical waves that can exist in the force-free magnetosphere. Waves are considered by means of a linear analysis of the force-free MHD equations.

Dawn‐Dusk Asymmetry of Kelvin‐Helmholtz Vortices Along the Kronian Magnetopause
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 11, 16 June 2025.Abstract The Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) at the Kronian magnetopause is an important process resulting from the interaction between the magnetosphere and the solar wind. The Kronian magnetosphere is rotationally driven, thus dawn‐dusk asymmetry has been observed in the KHI structures.

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1968 The magnetospheric substorm is perhaps the most widely known yet most poorly understood facet of magnetospheric disturbances. It is generally agreed that the substorm results from an explosive conversion of magnetic energy generated by the interaction between the solar wind and the magnetosphere.

Looking Into Pulsar Magnetospheres [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2001 AbstractDiffractive and refractive magnetospheric scintillations may allow direct probing of the plasma inside the pulsar light cylinder. The unusual electrodynamics of the strongly magnetized electron-positron plasma allows separation of the magnetospheric and interstellar scattering.

Energy Partitioning Between Thermal and Non‐Thermal Electrons and Ions in Magnetotail Reconnection
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 11, 16 June 2025.Abstract Magnetic reconnection is an explosive energy release event. It plays an important role in accelerating particles to high non‐thermal energies. These particles often exhibit energy spectra characterized by a power‐law distribution. However, the partitioning of energy between thermal and non‐thermal components, and between ions and electrons ...

Statistical Properties of Molecular Ions in the Ring Current Observed by the Arase (ERG) Satellite
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 Molecular ions in the magnetosphere can be a tracer of fast ion outflows from the deep ionosphere. Statistical properties of molecular ions (O2+/NO+/N2+) in the ring current are investigated based on ion composition measurements (

Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Coupling in the Region of Auroral Electrojets [PDF]
arXiv, 2001 We discuss the question as to how the magnetospheric energy source feeds the ionospheric current system. It is shown that a consistent application and further development of Kennel's ideas makes it possible to successfully solve the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling problem in regard to the formation of auroral electrojets by steady volume currents ...

Dynamics of Strongly Twisted Relativistic Magnetospheres [PDF]
, 2013 Magnetar magnetospheres are believed to be strongly twisted, due to shearing of the stellar crust by internal magnetic stresses. We present time-dependent axisymmetric simulations showing in detail the evolution of relativistic force-free magnetospheres subjected to slow twisting through large angles.
