Responses of the field-aligned currents in the plasma sheet boundary layer to a geomagnetic storm
Geomagnetic storms can result in large magnetic field disturbances and intense currents in the magnetosphere and even on the ground. As an important medium of momentum and energy transport among the solar wind, magnetosphere, and ionosphere, field ...

Magnetic storms during the space age: Occurrence and relation to varying solar activity [PDF]
We study the occurrence of magnetic storms in space age (1957-2021) using Dst and Dxt indices. We find 2526/2743 magnetic storms in the Dxt/Dst index, out of which 45% are weak, 40% moderate, 12% intense and 3% major storms. Occurrence of storms in space age follows the slow decrease of sunspot activity and the related change in solar magnetic ...

Reduction of Neuroinflammation by δ-Opioids Via STAT3-Dependent Pathway in Chronic Glaucoma Model
The main objective of this study was to determine the inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and their associated signaling molecules by δ-opioid receptor activation by a selective ligand, SNC-121 in chronic rat glaucoma model. Intraocular pressure was
