Wave and plasma measurements and GPS diagnostics of the main ionospheric trough as a hybrid method used for Space Weather purposes [PDF]
The region of the main ionospheric trough is a unique region of the ionosphere, where different types of waves and instabilities can be generated. This region of the ionosphere acts like a lens, focusing a variety of indicators from the equator of ...

Global Plasmaspheric Refilling Rates Inferred From Deep‐Learning Electron Density Reconstructions
Abstract As a key process in magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling, plasmaspheric refilling is a long‐standing focus in space physics. In this study, we develop a global electron density (GEO‐NE) model based on a CNN‐Transformer architecture, and use the model to investigate plasmaspheric electron density refilling rates. Using global electron density maps

Global estimates of plasmaspheric losses during moderate disturbance intervals [PDF]
For a set of five moderate disturbance events, we calculate the total number of He+ ions removed the plasmasphere using calibrated global EUV images.

Abstract We present a case study of large amplitude, compressional Pc5 waves observed by GOES 13 and 15 at geosynchronous orbit near noon. These waves were excited near the arrival time of two consecutive solar wind dynamic pressure spikes at the magnetopause, the second of which was associated with a large and rapid southward turning of the ...

Abstract Auroral precipitation plays a key role in coupling the Magnetosphere–Ionosphere–Thermosphere system by modifying ionospheric conductance, currents, atmospheric heating, and upper‐atmospheric dynamics. Leveraging 17 years of electron spectrum data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), we developed a Machine Learning‐based ...

A Predictive Model of the Position of Plasmapause Based on Lunar Phase and Deep Learning Framework
The plasmapause position is crucial for understanding magnetospheric dynamics and space weather forecasting. This study pioneers the integration of lunar phase (LP) into plasmapause modeling using two neural network architectures (BP and fully connected ...

Assessment of Spacecraft Internal Charging in the Earth's Outer Radiation Belt
Abstract The internal charging effects triggered by energetic (>100 keV) electrons in the Earth's radiation belts can cause anomalies and failures of electronic components aboard spacecraft. Given the critical importance of safeguarding space assets, it is essential to estimate internal charging risks, which depend highly on the distribution of ...

A very bright SAR arc: implications for extreme magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling [PDF]
In contrast to the polar aurora visible during geomagnetic storms, stable auroral red (SAR) arcs offer a sub-visual manifestation of direct magnetosphere-ionosphere (M-I) coupling at midlatitudes.

Abstract We examine the response of the ionosphere to the 10–13 May 2024 and 10–13 October 2024 geomagnetic storms, the two recent great geomagnetic storms of solar cycle 25. We identified the occurrence of ionospheric irregularities during the two geomagnetic storms.

A quantitative model for cyclotron wave-particle interactions at the plasmapause [PDF]
The formation of a zone of energetic electron precipitation by the plasmapause, a region of enhanced plasma density, following energetic particle injection during a magnetic storm, is analyzed.
