Jupiter’s main auroral oval observed with HST-STIS
[1] An extended series of FUV images obtained on 7 days during winter 2000–2001, with fixed pointing, yielded highly accurate tracking of emisson features as Jupiter rotated. They provided newly detailed measurements of the degree of corotation of auroral emissions and their variations with changing central meridian longitude. This 2-month data set provides a statistical average location of the...
متن کاملProblems with mapping the auroral oval and magnetospheric substorms
Accurate mapping of the auroral oval into the equatorial plane is critical for the analysis of aurora and substorm dynamics. Comparison of ion pressure values measured at low altitudes by Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellites during their crossings of the auroral oval, with plasma pressure values obtained at the equatorial plane from Time History of Events and Macroscale In...
متن کاملPs 6 disturbances: relation to substorms and the auroral oval
Ps 6 disturbances and associated omega bands are often considered to be part of the phenomenology of the recovery phase of substorms. We note cases of the initiation of Ps 6 activity at or very near the time of onset, either of a substorm expansive phase, a pseudobreakup, or a poleward border intensification. Thus, we claim that Ps 6 disturbances need not be viewed primarily as phenomena of the...
متن کاملA New Method for Auroral Oval Detection in FUV Imagery
A new fully automatic method for detecting auroral ovals in images produced by the NASA IMAGE satellite’s Far Ultra Violet (FUV) sensor is introduced. The method exploits the shape characteristics of the auroral oval and utilizes domain knowledge. The shape exploitation involves an efficient Hough-based process. Experimental results show that the new method can accurately detect the auroral ova...
متن کاملGround-based and satellite observations of high-latitude auroral activity in the dusk sector of the auroral oval
On 7 December 2000, during 13:30–15:30 UT the MIRACLE all-sky camera at Ny Ålesund observed auroras at high-latitudes (MLAT ∼ 76) simultaneously when the Cluster spacecraft were skimming the magnetopause in the same MLT sector (at ∼ 16:00–18:00 MLT). The location of the auroras (near the ionospheric convection reversal boundary) and the clear correlation between their dynamics and IMF variation...
