Source of the dayside cusp aurora
Monochromatic all-sky imagers at South Pole and other Antarctic stations of the Automatic Geophysical Observatory chain recorded the aurora in the region where the Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) satellites crossed the dayside magnetopause. In several cases the magnetic field lines threading the satellites when mapped to the atmosphere were inside th...
متن کاملAverage field-aligned current configuration parameterized by solar wind conditions
We present the first large-scale comparison of the spatial distribution of field-aligned currents as measured by the Active Magnetosphere and Planetary Electrodynamics Response Experiment, with the location and brightness of the average auroral oval, determined from the Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration far ultraviolet instrument. These distributions are compared under the sa...
متن کاملOn the source of plasma density and electric field perturbations in PMSE and PMWE regions
تشکیل ابرهای مسسفری در فصل تابستان و در ارتفاع ۸۰ تا ۹۰ کیلومتری از سطح زمین در نواحی قطبی دارای اهمیت بسیار زیادی می باشند. ارتباط مستقیم بین افزایش مشاهده این ابرها و پدیده گرم شدن کره زمین از دلایل اصلی اهمیت مطالعه این ناحیه می باشد. طبق تحقیقات انجام شده افزایش گازهای گلخانه ای باعث کاهش دما در این ناحیه از جو می شود. از طرف دیگر افزایش گاز متان و فرایند تجزیه آن توسط نور خورشید نیز باعث ا...
متن کاملEffect of the dawn-dusk interplanetary magnetic field By on the field-aligned current system
[1] A constant dawn-dusk By component is set as an interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) condition in our global MHD simulations to investigate the effects of IMF By on the closure of the field-aligned current (FAC) in the magnetosphere. On the basis of the steady state magnetosphere results, we trace streamlines of FAC from the ionosphere to draw the global geometry of current streamlines in the...
متن کاملLunar dayside current in the terrestrial lobe: ARTEMIS observations
We report Acceleration, Reconnection, Turbulence and Electrodynamics of Moon’s Interaction with the Sun (ARTEMIS) dual-probe observations of two events in the terrestrial magnetotail lobe, both characterized by upward moving heavy ions of lunar origin at one of the probes that is magnetically connected with the dayside lunar surface. By treating magnetic measurements at the other probe as the u...
