Comparison of F‐Region Ion Velocities Measured by Swarm Satellites and EISCAT Radars
Abstract Ionospheric ion flow velocities measured by the Swarm satellites are compared with the ion velocities estimated from the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) radar measurements in Tromsø and on Svalbard. A comparison is carried out between the cross‐track horizontal ion velocity component given by the Swarm Electric Field Instrument and the ...

Evidence for a Natural Limit to Electron Space Radiation: An Application of Benford's Law
Abstract Recent research has highlighted observational evidence for a natural limit to the severity of energetic electron differential fluxes in the Van Allen radiation belts. Here, we analyze the occurrence distributions of electron differential fluxes from the entire Van Allen Probes mission (2012–2019) to further investigate the energy dependence of

Low Plasma Density Estimation Based on Measurements of Electron Cyclotron Harmonic Waves
Abstract The electron plasma frequency to cyclotron frequency ratio is a crucial parameter for accurately evaluating local chorus wave‐driven electron acceleration and loss in the inner magnetosphere. In the present work, we propose a method for inferring the plasma frequency from near‐equatorial measurements of electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves ...

Temperatures of Jupiter’s Upper Atmosphere: The Role of the Planetary Magnetic Field
The primary source of heating in the upper atmospheres (thermospheres) of giant planets has been the subject of long debate. The conundrum (or “energy crisis”) consists in observed thermosphere temperatures at low and midlatitudes exceeding values ...

The Evolution of Powell Basin (Antarctica)
Powell Basin is an ocean basin formed as a result of the Scotia Sea evolution. The existing tectonic models propose a variety of starting and ending ages for the spreading of the basin based on seafloor magnetic anomalies.

Emission of Energetic Neutral Atoms From Ganymede's Magnetosphere‐Atmosphere Interaction
Abstract This study analyzes the emission of energetic neutral atoms (ENAs), generated by charge exchange between energetic protons and Ganymede's atmosphere. We also constrain the observability of such ENAs by an imaging instrument aboard a spacecraft.

Solar Wind Control of the Martian Magnetotail Current Sheet and Magnetic Reconnection
Magnetic reconnection is a rapid process that releases magnetic free energy stored in current sheets (CSs), driving various explosive phenomena throughout the Universe. In planets within the solar system, reconnection is controlled by both the solar wind
