Chaos in magnetic flux ropes
Magnetic flux ropes immersed in a uniform magnetoplasma are observed to twist about themselves, writhe about each other and rotate about a central axis. They are kink unstable and smash into one another as they move. Each collision results in magnetic field line reconnection and the generation of a quasi-separatrix layer. Three-dimensional magnetic field lines are computed by conditionally aver...
متن کاملGiant flux ropes observed in the magnetized ionosphere at Venus
[1] The Venus ionospheric response to solar and solar wind variations is most evident in its magnetic field properties. Early Pioneer Venus observations during the solar maximum revealed that the Venus ionosphere exhibits two magnetic states depending on the solar wind dynamic pressure conditions: magnetized ionosphere with large-scale horizontal magnetic field; or unmagnetized ionosphere with ...
متن کاملStationary flux ropes at the southern terminator of Mars
[1] Flux ropes have long been observed in the upper atmosphere of Venus and more recently at Mars. Here we present magnetic field measurements of flux ropes encountered at the southern terminator of Mars by Mars Global Surveyor and compare them to a flux rope model. This allows several parameters of each rope to be inferred. Remarkably similar flux ropes are met repeatedly at the southern termi...
متن کاملLyapunov Modes for a Nonequilibrium System with a Heat Flux
We present the first numerical observation of Lyapunov modes (mode structure of Lyapunov vectors) in a system maintained in a nonequilibrium steady state. The modes show some similarities and some differences when compared with the results for equilibrium systems. The breaking of energy conservation removes a zero exponent and introduces a new mode. The transverse modes are only weakly altered ...
متن کاملSurvival of flux transfer event (FTE) flux ropes far along the tail magnetopause
[1] During intervals of southward IMF, magnetic reconnection can result in the formation of flux transfer events (FTEs) on the dayside magnetopause which travel along the magnetopause in the anti-sunward direction. Of particular interest is their fate and the role they play transporting solar wind plasma into the magnetosphere. We present the discovery of FTEs far along the distant tail magneto...
