Martian Magnetotail Neutral Sheet Asymmetry Driven by Heavy Planetary Pickup Ions
Geophysical Research LettersIn the induced magnetotail of Mars, the neutral sheet is an important channel for atmospheric ion escape, yet the role of heavy planetary pickup ions in shaping its geometry has been unclear.

Explosive Magnetotail Activity [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2019 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

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page i-xiv., 2021 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.

Unrestricted Solar Energetic Particle Access to the Moon While Within the Terrestrial Magnetotail
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 This study presents observations of Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) protons that have penetrated Earth's magnetotail to reach the lunar environment. We apply data from Wind as an upstream monitor and compare to observations from THEMIS‐ARTEMIS within the ...

Machine Learning Applications to Kronian Magnetospheric Reconnection Classification
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 The products of magnetic reconnection in Saturn’s magnetotail are identified in magnetometer observations primarily through characteristic deviations in the north–south component of the magnetic field.

Earthward Flow Bursts in the Magnetotail Driven by Solar Wind Pressure Impulse [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008 On August 31, 2001, ~ 1705 - 1718 UT, Cluster was located near the midnight magnetotail, GSE (x, y, z) ~ (-19, - 2,2) RE, and observed fast earthward flow bursts in the vicinity of the neutral sheet.

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1988 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 ...
