Energetic electron precipitation during substorm injection events: High-latitude fluxes and an unexpected midlatitude signature [PDF]
Geosynchronous Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL-97A) satellite particle data, riometer data, and radio wave data recorded at high geomagnetic latitudes in the region south of Australia and New Zealand are used to perform the first complete modeling ...

A superposed epoch analysis of auroral evolution during substorm growth, onset and recovery: open magnetic flux control of substorm intensity [PDF]
We perform two superposed epoch analyses of the auroral evolution during substorms using the FUV instrument on the Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Explorer ( IMAGE) spacecraft. The larger of the two studies includes nearly 2000 substorms.

Substorms have been found to play an important role in ionospheric electrodynamics at low and equatorial latitudes. In this study, we have investigated the possible influence of substorm on the generation of equatorial spread F (ESF).

The magnetospheric substorm is perhaps the most widely known yet most poorly understood facet of magnetospheric disturbances. It is generally agreed that the substorm results from an explosive conversion of magnetic energy generated by the interaction between the solar wind and the magnetosphere.

Cosmic radio noise absorption events associated with equatorward drifting arcs during a substorm growth phase [PDF]
International audienceCosmic radio noise absorption (CNA) events associated with equatorward drifting arcs during a substorm growth phase are studied by using simultaneous optical auroral, IRIS imaging riometer and EISCAT incoherent scatter radar ...

Timing and location of substorm onsets from THEMIS satellite and ground based observations [PDF]
The unprecedented coverage of the THEMIS GBO station network coupled with high temporal and spatial resolution allowed us to determine the various stages of the global scale developments of the optical aurora at substorm onsets.

Stormtime Energetics: Energy Transport Across the Magnetopause in a Global MHD Simulation
Coupling between the solar wind and magnetosphere can be expressed in terms of energy transfer through the separating boundary known as the magnetopause.

Flux closure during a substorm observed by cluster, double star, IMAGE FUV, SuperDARN, and greenland magnetometers [PDF]
We examine magnetic flux closure during an ex- tended substorm interval on 29 August 2004 involving a two-stage onset and subsequent re-intensifications.

EISCAT/CRRES observations: Nightside ionospheric ion outflow and oxygen-rich substorm injections [PDF]
We present combined observations made near midnight by the EISCAT radar, all-sky cameras and the combined released and radiation efects satellite (CRRES) shortly before and during a substorm.

The substorm is a thing obscure/ We cannot make it out for sure/ But physicists with lots of nerve/ Fill in details they can't observe/ They see it in their own grand visions/ Of tearing modes with no collisions/ That squeeze away the plasma sheet/ To make opposing fluxes meet/ And in their merging, oh so swift/ Great plasmoids are cut adrift/ Or else ...
