Explosive Magnetotail Activity [PDF]
Modes and manifestations of the explosive activity in the Earth's magnetotail, as well as its onset mechanisms and key pre-onset conditions are reviewed. Two mechanisms for the generation of the pre-onset current sheet are discussed, namely magnetic flux addition to the tail lobes, or other high-latitude perturbations, and magnetic flux evacuation from

When a rapidly moving low‐density plasma encounters a massive magnetized object in space, a tail of magnetic field lines typically forms behind the object. Some of the field lines that thread through the central body are stretched out in the downstream direction be cause of frictional processes that act between the body's own field lines and the ...

It is well known that the Earth's magnetosphere is permeated by a large‐scale electric field, E, which in its turn produces a global flow pattern known as magnetospheric convection, with velocity u = (E × B)/B2 . Convection is the key to understanding the global features of the magnetosphere, for instance the large‐scale flow of electric currents along
