The correlation of ULF waves and auroral intensity before, during and after substorm expansion phase onset [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present case studies of the evolution of magnetic wave amplitudes and auroral intensity through the late growth phase and the expansion phase of the substorm cycle.

Resonant ULF waves: A new interpretation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1985
Many important properties of ultra‐low frequency (ULF) magnetic pulsations (∼1 to 10 minute periods) observed in the magnetosphere and by ground‐based magnetometers have been interpreted successfully in terms of resonant field line models. These models describe the pulsations as transverse hydromagnetic waves standing on dipole flux tubes with fixed ...

Multiradar observations of substorm‐driven ULF waves [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2016
AbstractA recent statistical study of ULF waves driven by substorm‐injected particles observed using Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) found that the phase characteristics of these waves varied depending on where the wave was observed relative to the substorm. Typically, positive azimuthal wave numbers, m, were observed in waves generated to

Wavelet-based ULF wave diagnosis of substorm expansion phase onset [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Using a discrete wavelet transform with a Meyer wavelet basis, we present a new quantitative algorithm for determining the onset time of Pi1 and Pi2 ULF waves in the nightside ionosphere with ∼20- to 40-s resolution at substorm expansion phase onset.

Numerical study of the generation and propagation of ultralow-frequency waves by artificial ionospheric F region modulation at different latitudes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2016
Powerful high-frequency (HF) radio waves can be used to efficiently modify the upper-ionospheric plasmas of the F region. The pressure gradient induced by modulated electron heating at ultralow-frequency (ULF) drives a local oscillating diamagnetic ...

ULF wave activity in the magnetosphere: resolving solar wind interdependencies to identify driving mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in the magnetosphere are involved in the energisation and transport of radiation belt particles and are strongly driven by the external solar wind.

A case study of large-amplitude ULF waves in the Martian foreshock

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics, 2020
Foreshock ultralow frequency (ULF) waves constitute a significant physical phenomenon in the plasma environment of terrestrial planets. The occurrence of these waves, associated with backstreaming particles reflected and accelerated at the bow shock ...

Modulation of NTC frequencies by Pc5 ULF pulsations : experimental test of the generation mechanism and magnetoseismology of the emitting surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nonthermal continuum (NTC) radiation is believed to be emitted by the conversion of an electrostatic wave into an electromagnetic one, which takes place at the Earth's magnetic equator.

Modulation of Locally Generated Equatorial Noise by ULF Wave [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2019
AbstractIn this paper we report a rare and fortunate event of fast magnetosonic (MS, also called equatorial noise) waves modulated by compressional ultralow frequency (ULF) waves measured by Van Allen Probes. The characteristics of MS waves, ULF waves, proton distribution, and their potential correlations are analyzed.
