Mercury's magnetospheric substorm and storm

地球与行星物理论评, 2022
Magnetospheric substorms and magnetic storms are explosive energy storage and release processes occurring during the interactions between the solar wind and planetary magnetospheres. They are accompanied by complex plasma dynamics processes and they have

Solar wind driving and magnetospheric preconditioning during omega band substorm events

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Omega bands are mesoscale structures in the auroral oval that appear during periods of enhanced geomagnetic activity. Omega band formation has previously been associated with highly localized drivers in the magnetotail and global compression regions in ...

Quantifying Non‐Maxwellian Properties of Ion Populations During Reconnection at Earth's Magnetopause

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract We investigate ion velocity‐space features within the exhaust of magnetopause reconnection using a global hybrid‐Vlasov simulation. The Hermite transform and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) are applied to quantify the complexity of velocity‐space structures that arise during the mixing of magnetospheric and magnetosheath ion populations.

Dipolarization-induced energetic electron precipitation during continuously active periods and isolated substorms

Frontiers in Physics, 2022
Recently we proposed a spatio-temporal model of auroral absorption for isolated substorms based on linear prediction filter technique, which describes the precipitation effects as a sum of properly weighted and time-delayed contributions of short ...

Altitude Dependence of Quasi‐Static Potential Drop: The Effect of Ionospheric Protons

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Using an improved kinetic model that incorporates cold ionospheric protons and oxygen ions, we investigate the factors controlling the altitude range of the auroral acceleration region (AAR). In this model, parallel electric fields are generated via Dispersive Alfven Wave‐ Modified electron Acoustic Wave (DAW‐MEAW) coupling and sustained by ...

Unsolved problems: Mesoscale polar cap flow channels’ structure, propagation, and effects on space weather disturbances

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
Dynamic mesoscale flow structures move across the open field line regions of the polar caps and then enter the nightside plasma sheet where they can cause important space weather disturbances, such as streamers, substorms, and omega bands.

Global Three‐Dimensional Simulation of Magnetospheric Dynamics During the Extreme Geomagnetic Storm of 10–11 May 2024

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This study presents a high‐resolution three‐dimensional global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the historic geomagnetic storm of 10–11 May 2024, using observational data for the ACE solar wind input. This extreme event was characterized by intense solar wind dynamic pressure (∼50 nPa) and exceptionally strong interplanetary magnetic ...

Faint Diffuse 557.7‐nm Emissions Equatorward of the Auroral Oval: Conjugate Observations by Ground Airglow Imagers and the Arase Satellite

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract At subauroral latitudes, discrete auroras, such as strong thermal emission velocity enhancement and stable auroral red arcs, have been extensively studied. On the other hand, diffuse emissions at subauroral latitudes have not been studied well.

Convection Velocity Covariance Estimated From SuperDARN Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract An examination of the spatial covariance of the high‐latitude plasma convection velocity is presented. The covariance was calculated from patterns of plasma convection estimated from Super Dual Auroral Radar Network observations. The convection patterns were calculated on a magnetic latitude—magnetic local time grid from 55° ${}^{\circ}$ to 88.
