A multi-spacecraft survey of magnetic field line draping in the dayside magnetosheath
When the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) encounters the Earth’s magnetosphere, it is compressed and distorted. This distortion is known as draping, and plays an important role in the interaction between the IMF and the geomagnetic field. This paper considers a particular aspect of draping, namely how the orientation of the IMF in a plane perpendicular to the Sun-Earth line (the clock angle)...
متن کامل2D plasma sheet ion density and temperature profiles for northward and southward IMF
[1] We previously developed a method for inferring plasma sheet ion temperature and density from ionospheric observations. Using this method and DMSP observations for 1992, we present 2D profiles of the equatorial plasma sheet ion density and temperature for southward and northward IMF for b2i > 64 or Kp < 3. During periods of northward IMF, cold dense ions can be found plentifully along the pl...
متن کاملIMF Conditionality
This paper presents a principal-agent model of IMF conditional lending, in the aftermath of a “capital-account” liquidity crisis. We show that traditional ex-post conditionality can be e¤ective in safeguarding the Fund’s resources, allowing for the provision of e¢cient emergency lending and reducing ine¢cient ex-ante credit rationing if the capital out‡ow which triggers the crisis is not excess...
متن کاملIMP 8 magnetosheath ®eld comparisons with models
This study presents cross-sectional vector maps of the magnetic ®eld derived from IMP 8 magnetometer in the magnetosheath at 30 Re behind the Earth. In addition the vector patterns of the magnetosheath ®eld for northward, southward, and east-west interplanetary magnetic ®eld (IMF) directions are qualitatively compared with those obtained from the Spreiter-Stahara gas dynamic (GD) and Fedder-Lyo...
متن کاملInterhemispheric observations of the ionospheric signature of tail reconnection during IMF-northward non-substorm intervals
This paper presents the first interhemispheric radar observations interpreted as the ionospheric response to tail reconnection during IMF-northward non-substorm intervals. SuperDARN measurements of plasma convection in the nightside ionospheres of both hemispheres, taken on 21–22 February and 26–27 April 2000, show bursts of flow in the midnight sector which are understood to be characteristic ...
