Variability of MLT winds and waves over mid-latitude during the 2000/2001 and 2009/2010 winter stratospheric sudden warming [PDF]
The mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) wind structure over Wuhan (30° N, 114° E) in 2000/2001 winter and over Langfang (39.4° N, 116.6° E) in 2009/2010 winter are examined to reveal the effects of stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) in mid-low ...

Thermal Equilibrium Curves and Turbulent Mixing in Keplerian Accretion Disks [PDF]
We consider vertical heat transport in Keplerian accretion disks, including the effects of radiation, convection, and turbulent mixing driven by the Balbus-Hawley instability, in astronomical systems ranging from dwarf novae (DNe), and soft X-ray ...

TIMED Doppler Interferometer measurements of neutral winds at the mesosphere and lower thermosphere and comparison to meteor radar winds [PDF]
The mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) comprise a highly variable region that forms the transition region between the middle and upper atmosphere.

Periodic auroral events at the high‐latitude convection reversal in the 16 MLT region [PDF]
Combined optical and radar observations of two breakup‐like auroral events near the polar cap boundary, within 74–76° MLAT and 1210 – 1240 UT (roughly 1540 – 1610 MLT) on 9 Jan. 1989 are reported. A two‐component structure of the auroral phenomenon is indicated, with a local intensification of the pre‐existing arc as well as a separate, tailward moving

Spatial distributions of electromagnetic field variations and injection regions during the 20 November 2007 sawtooth event [PDF]
We report multi-spacecraft and ground-based observations of a "sawtooth" event on 20 November 2007. For this event, data from three THEMIS, two GOES, and four LANL spacecraft are available as well as those from extensively distributed ground ...

Estimating the location of the open-closed magnetic field line boundary from auroral images [PDF]
The open-closed magnetic field line boundary (OCB) delimits the region of open magnetic flux forming the polar cap in the Earth’s ionosphere. We present a reliable, automated method for determining the location of the poleward auroral luminosity boundary

A Statistical Model of Inner Magnetospheric Electron Density: Van Allen Probes Observations
Based on electron density observations between September 2012 and July 2019 from the Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument Suite and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) on board the Van Allen Probes (VAPs) spacecraft, this paper makes a statistical ...
