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 ...

Auroral patches in the vicinity of the plasmapause
Unusual aurora‐like patches have been observed equatorward of the diffuse auroral boundary by the ISIS‐2 scanning auroral photometer. These rare features are observed predominantly in the evening sector and appear to corotate with the earth and to have lifetimes longer than two hours.

Multi-satellite study of the excitation of Pc3 and Pc4-5 ULF waves and their penetration across the plasmapause during the 2003 Halloween superstorm [PDF]
We use multi-satellite and ground-based magnetic data to investigate the concurrent characteristics of Pc3 (22–100 mHz) and Pc4-5 (1–22 mHz) ultra-low-frequency (ULF) waves on the 31 October 2003 during the Halloween magnetic superstorm. ULF waves are

Abstract This study investigates the co‐evolution of geomagnetic field disturbances with ionospheric parameters and their characteristic latitudinal signatures by conducting a location and time‐dependent analysis of the 07–12 October 2024 events, to fill crucial gaps in understanding the coupled response of the magnetosphere‐ionosphere system. This has

Wide-banded NTC radiation: local to remote observations by the four Cluster satellites [PDF]
The Cluster multi-point mission offers a unique collection of non-thermal continuum (NTC) radio waves observed in the 2–80 kHz frequency range over almost 15 years, from various view points over the radiating plasmasphere.

Observing the Earth's Plasmasphere and Ionosphere From the Lunar Surface
Abstract We present the analysis of the first lunar‐based observational characterization of the Earth's plasmasphere and ionosphere using Global Navigation Satellite Systems signals tracked from the lunar surface by the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE). The Earth‐Moon geometry enables limb sounding of the plasmasphere at altitudes exceeding 3,000

Abstract Using Van Allen Probes data (2013–2015), we report that highly oblique chorus waves frequently occur in low‐density regions where fpe/fce≈3 ${f}_{\text{pe}}/{f}_{\text{ce}}\approx 3$. These waves exhibit an electric‐to‐magnetic energy ratio PE/c2PB>0.5 $\sqrt{{P}_{\mathrm{E}}/{c}^{2}{P}_{\mathrm{B}}} > 0.5$, much higher than the typical <0.1 ${

Model study of plasmapause motion [PDF]
The ambient plasma in the equatorial plane is predominantly subject to the E×B drift. By approximating the earth's magnetic field by a dipole, characteristic steady state streamlines in the equatorial plane are determined, assuming the interaction between the solar wind and the magnetosphere is characterized by a constant electric field directed from ...

Abstract A new proton radiation belt was identified during the geomagnetic superstorm of 10–11 May 2024. To investigate its origin, we use an MHD‐test particle simulation to model solar energetic proton (SEP) trapping and the evolution of the initial trapped proton population during the storm.

An alternative interpretation of Jupiter's “plasmapause”
It has recently been suggested that Io is an important source of ions for the plasma detected by Pioneer 10 in the inner magnetosphere of Jupiter. Assuming this to be true, we show that near the orbit of Io the central collector of the Pioneer‐10 plasma instrument could detect only inwardly diffusing ions created at a radial distance greater than that ...
