Abstract The Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) mediates the viscous‐like solar‐terrestrial interaction by generating magnetopause surface waves that quickly become non‐linear. Basic theory predicts the locally most‐unstable linear wave dominates.

The Role of Planetary Rotation in Polar Cusp Localization
Abstract Juno observations have revealed that Jupiter's polar cusps are displaced toward dusk and even the nightside, contradicting the Earth‐derived paradigm that is confined to narrower ranges near noon. These findings underscore the overlooked influence of planetary rotation on magnetospheric dynamics, exposing a critical gap in current theoretical ...

Electron Dispersion at the Electron Edge of the Earth's Magnetospheric Cusp
Abstract The Tandem Reconnection and Cusp Electrodynamics Reconnaissance Satellites (TRACERS) mission observes electron energy‐latitude dispersion at the equatorward edge of the magnetospheric cusp, and high‐cadence Analyzer for Cusp Electrons (ACE) measurements resolve the dispersed edge. The inverse velocity dispersion (low energy before high energy)

Magnetic Rope Is an Electron Selector: Discovery in Space and Conceptual Application to Medicine
Abstract Magnetic rope is a helical structure existing ubiquitously in astrophysical and space plasmas. Such structure has been conventionally known to accelerate electrons, convert energy, and play key roles in driving solar eruptions. Here, in contrast to the conventional concept, we report that the magnetic rope can divert electrons efficiently in ...

Direct Observations of Magnetic Reconnections at the Magnetopause of the Martian Mini‐Magnetosphere
While Mars lacks a global intrinsic magnetic field, it does exhibit crustal magnetic anomalies (mostly in its Southern Hemisphere). These crustal magnetic anomalies directly interact with solar wind, which forms a mini‐magnetosphere and a region denoted ...

Abstract Magnetosheath high‐speed jets with enhanced dynamic pressure are common in Earth's magnetosheath and can impinge on the magnetopause, driving pronounced boundary deformation. Recent observations indicate that shock–discontinuity interactions (SDIs) can generate magnetosheath jets, but the formation mechanism is still unclear.

Solar Magnetic Activity and Its Terrestrial Impact through Correlations with Drought Indices
Solar activity manifests itself in the form of sunspots on the solar surface and solar flares, which can influence Earth's climatic conditions, including drought in mid-latitude regions.

The Role of Reconnection at Magnetic Separators in Complex Solar Flare Ribbons
Solar flare ribbons, manifesting as transient brightenings in the chromosphere, are believed to trace the footpoints of magnetic field lines reconnecting higher in the solar atmosphere.
