Energy transport through Earth’s plasma sheet in 3-D

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
A statistical analysis of energy transport through Earth’s plasma sheet is performed using 6 years of Magnetospheric Multi-Scale (MMS) mission observations. The analysis entails a complete decomposition of the contributions to transport including the ion

Wave generation and particle transport in the plasma sheet and boundary layer [PDF]

The one and two ion beam instability was considered as a possible explanation for the observations of broadband electrostatic noise in the plasma sheet region of the geomagnetic tail. When only hot streaming plasma sheet boundary layer ions were present,

Magnetotail energy dissipation during an auroral substorm. [PDF]

, 2016
Violent releases of space plasma energy from the Earth's magnetotail during substorms produce strong electric currents and bright aurora. But what modulates these currents and aurora and controls dissipation of the energy released in the ionosphere ...

The connection of the Ions and electrons in the Earth’s central plasma sheet to the solar wind

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The simple problems of the solar wind number density driving the plasma sheet number density and the solar wind speed driving the plasma sheet temperature are examined.

Survey of the plasma electron environment of Jupiter: A view from Voyager [PDF]

The plasma environment within Jupiter's bow shock is considered in terms of the in situ, calibrated electron plasma measurements made between 10 eV and 5.95 keV by the Voyager plasma science experiment (PLS).

Studying dawn-dusk asymmetries of Mercury's magnetotail using MHD-EPIC simulations

, 2019
MESSENGER has observed a lot of dawn-dusk asymmetries in Mercury's magnetotail, such as the asymmetries of the cross-tail current sheet thickness and the occurrence of flux ropes, dipolarization events and energetic electron injections.

Chaos in the plasma sheet

Geophysical Research Letters, 1991
We discuss a simple dynamical model of the magnetotail, in which the electric field in the current sheet evolves in response to a solar‐wind‐induced electric field at the magnetopause, and depends on the specific entropy of the plasma in the plasma sheet.
