Plasma Observations in the Magnetotail

1976
Through the analysis of data returned from the three Rice Suprathermal Ion Detectors we have obtained information on the particle regimes present in the geomagnetic tail at lunar distances. We are able to distinguish the existence of two distinct particle populations and to quantify many of their spatial and plasma characteristics.

Ion streams in the magnetotail

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1981
Ion mass spectrometer observations of low‐temperature streaming plasmas in the earth's magnetotail are reported. Measurements in the energy per charge range 0 ≤E/q ≤17 keV/e were made at geocentric radial distances <23 RE from the ISEE 1 spacecraft.

Quadrennial review of the magnetotail

Reviews of Geophysics, 1987
There has been a great deal of interest in the magnetotail during the past quadrennial period. This has been in part due to the passage of ISEE 3 through the distant magnetotail. The investigation of the region from 60 to 220 RE from the earth has contributed much to our understanding of tail structure and dynamical response to geomagnetic activity. As

Particle acceleration in the magnetotail

Advances in Space Research, 2002
Abstract Very prominent particle acceleration occurs during current disruption in the magnetotail. Although particle acceleration is frequently attributed to magnetic reconnection alone, particle heating and acceleration can equally well be associated with plasma instabilities which can be unrelated to magnetic reconnection.
