Energetic electrons which impinge into the polar upper atmosphere generate brems-strahlung X-rays when they collide with upper atmospheric particles. Balloon-borne detectors have been used to observe X-rays at about the 30 km level. However, because of the layer of atmosphere between the height at which the X-rays are generated and the height of the ...

The magnetosphere is the region where cosmic rays and the solar wind interact with the Earth's magnetic field, creating such phenomena as the northern lights and other aurorae. The configuration and dynamics of the magnetosphere are of interest to planetary physicists, geophysicists, plasma astrophysicists, and to scientists planning space missions ...

Magnetospheric Substorms: Introduction
1977It is believed that the magnetospheric substorm results when the energy stored in the magnetotail is explosively released toward the inner magnetosphere and finally deposited as heat energy in the upper atmosphere (Dungey, 1961; Axford, 1969). We have learned in the last four chapters that the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction constitutes a ...
