Quasi‐Periodic X‐Ray Variations at BARREL: Role of Electron Precipitation and Solar Wind Driving
Abstract The Balloon Array for Radiation belt Relativistic Electron Losses (BARREL) mission was designed to study the loss of radiation belt electrons to the upper atmosphere. Previous analysis of data from balloon pairs showed that electron precipitation events manifest coherent quasi‐periodic variations (with periodicity on the order of 10–60 min ...

Abstract Magnetic reconnection is a highly dynamic process that excites a wide variety of kinetic waves and instabilities. Transverse current sheet instabilities such as the lower‐hybrid drift and secondary drift‐kink instabilities in particular have been shown by kinetic simulations to modify the reconnection and introduce significant turbulence and ...

The Partition of Energy Flux Transport at Bursty Bulk Flows
Abstract Bursty bulk flows (BBFs) are fast flows of plasma in the tail and are responsible for much of the energy flux transport earthward from the tail into the inner magnetosphere despite being relatively short‐lived. BBFs are often accompanied by injections in which particles that have been accelerated to 10–100s of keV are transported earthward. We

A Statistical Study of Warm Plasma Cloak Particles Using Van Allen Probe Data
Abstract The Warm Plasma Cloak (WPC) consists of ions in the inner magnetosphere with energies between 10 eV and 1 keV and showing a bidirectional pitch angle distribution of particles. These particles play an important role in wave–particle interactions and in controlling the dayside reconnection rate at the magnetopause.

Extension, Improvements and Perspectives of the Cluster GRMB Data Set
Abstract The purpose of the Geospace Region and Magnetospheric Boundary identification (GRMB) data set is to provide information on the regions crossed by each of the 4 Cluster spacecraft during the entire mission. The data set includes 15 labels, 11 for regions and transition regions (TR): plasmasphere, plasmapause TR, plasmasheet, plasmasheet TR ...
