On the propagation of bubbles in the geomagnetic tail [PDF]
Using three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations, we investigate the propagation of low-entropy magnetic flux tubes ("bubbles") in the magnetotail.

Measurement of geomagnetically induced current (GIC) around Tokyo, Japan
We need a typical method of directly measuring geomagnetically induced current (GIC) to compare data for estimating a potential risk of power grids caused by GIC.

Magnetospheric Source and Electric Current System Associated With Intense SAIDs
AbstractSubauroral Ion Drifts (SAIDs) are fast azimuthal plasma flows in the ionosphere. In this study, we use the Rice Convection Model to simulate an extremely intense SAID event which may trigger atmospheric emission phenomenon by specifying consecutive low‐entropy bubble injections.

Black Hole and Neutron Star Transients in Quiescence [PDF]
We consider the X-ray luminosity difference between neutron star and black hole soft X-ray transients (NS and BH SXTs) in quiescence. The current observational data suggest that BH SXTs are significantly fainter than NS SXTs.

Magnetospheric convection electric field dynamics and stormtime particle energization: Case study of the magnetic storm of 4 May 1998 [PDF]
It is shown that narrow channels of high electric field are an effective mechanism for injecting plasma into the inner magnetosphere. Analytical expressions for the electric field cannot produce these channels of intense plasma flow, and thus, result in ...

Auroral electrojet dynamics during magnetic storms, connection with plasma precipitation and large-scale structure of the magnetospheric magnetic field [PDF]
Effect of the equatorward shift of the eastward and westward electrojets during magnetic storms main phase is analyzed based on the meridional chains of magnetic observatories EISCAT and IMAGE and several Russian observatories (geomagnetic longitude ...

The Vlasiator 5.2 ionosphere – coupling a magnetospheric hybrid-Vlasov simulation with a height-integrated ionosphere model [PDF]
Simulations of the coupled ionosphere–magnetosphere system are a key tool to understand geospace and its response to space weather. For the most part, they are based on fluid descriptions of plasma (magnetohydrodynamics, MHD) formalism, coupled to an ...

Electromagnetic waves and bursty electron acceleration: implications from Freja [PDF]
Dispersive Alfvén wave activity is identified in four dayside auroral oval events measured by the Freja satellite. The events are characterized by ion injection, bursty electron precipitation below about 1 keV, transverse ion heating and broadband ...
