A joint Cluster and ground-based instruments study of two magnetospheric substorm events on 1 September 2002 [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2004
We present a coordinated ground- and space-based multi-instrument study of two magnetospheric substorm events that occurred on 1 September 2002, during the interval from 18:00 UT to 24:00 UT.

Efficiency of Electromagnetic Energy Transfer From Solar Wind to Ionosphere Through Magnetospheric Ultra‐Low Frequency Waves

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Ultra‐low frequency (ULF) waves are a ubiquitous carrier of energy in geospace. However, their efficiency in transferring solar wind energy into the upper atmosphere remains a fundamental and not well‐understood question. This is due to their global presence, which cannot be fully quantified by spatially limited observations, and the need for ...

A charging model for three-axis stabilized spacecraft [PDF]

, 1977
A charging model was developed for geosynchronous, three-axis stabilized spacecraft when under the influence of a geomagnetic substorm. The differential charging potentials between the thermally coated or blanketed outer surfaces and metallic structure ...

Statistical Estimate of the Magnetopause Reconnection Rate as a Function of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field Clock Angle

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract The magnetic reconnection rate at the magnetopause is crucial for solar wind and magnetosphere coupling. However, direct measurement is challenging due to inherent uncertainties and limited electron diffusion region statistics, hindering understanding of the guide field's influence on the normalized reconnection rate.

Study of the substorm: Part 2: Development of magnetosphere-ionosphere convection to the substorm

Antarctic Record, 2014
It has been believed that the substorm is a manifestation of extraordinary plasma processes in the magnetosphere, such as instability, anomalous resistivity, and reconnection.

Spatial Distributions of Energetic Electrons and Energetic Ions in the Tail Reconnection Region: Cluster Observations and PIC Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract High‐energy particles are prevalent in space, and magnetic reconnection is one of the physical processes responsible for their generation. The heating and acceleration of ions and electrons typically occur respectively in the ion diffusion region and the electron diffusion region.

Substorm Identification With the WINDMI Magnetosphere ‐ Ionosphere Nonlinear Physics Model

Space Weather
We investigate the applicability and performance of the plasma physics based WINDMI model to the analysis and identification of substorm onsets. There are several substorm onset criteria that have been developed into event lists, either from auroral ...

Radial distribution of the inner magnetosphere plasma pressure using low-altitude satellite data during geomagnetic storm: the March 1-8, 1982 Event

, 2007
Plasma pressure distribution in the inner magnetosphere is one of the key parameters for understanding the main magnetospheric processes including geomagnetic storms and substorms.

Multi‐Species Energy‐Banded Ions in the Ionosphere During the 21 January 2005 Magnetic Storm: Low‐Altitude Edge of the Warm Plasma Cloak

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract During the 21–22 January 2005 magnetic storm, the FAST satellite observed warm (< few keV) ions in discrete energy bands on the dayside at ∼3,000 km altitude for more than 6.5 hr. We suggest that the ionospheric energy‐banded ions represent the low‐altitude edge of the warm plasma cloak observed simultaneously by magnetospheric satellites ...

Estimating the location of the open-closed magnetic field line boundary from auroral images [PDF]

, 2010
The open-closed magnetic field line boundary (OCB) delimits the region of open magnetic flux forming the polar cap in the Earth’s ionosphere. We present a reliable, automated method for determining the location of the poleward auroral luminosity boundary
