Substorm observations in the early morning sector with Equator-S and Geotail
Data from Equator-S and Geotail are used to study the dynamics of the plasma sheet observed during a substorm with multiple intensi®cations on 25 April 1998, when both spacecraft were located in the early morning sector (03±04 MLT) at a radial distance of 10± 11 RE. In association with the onset of a poleward expansion of the aurora and the westward electrojet in the premidnight and midnight se...
متن کاملOn storm weakening during substorm expansion phase
Iyemori and Rao recently presented evidence that the strength of a magnetic storm, as measured by -Dst, weakens, or its rate of growth slows, during the substorm expansion phase. Yet the expansion phase is known to inject energetic particles into the ring current, which should strengthen the storm. We propose to reconcile these apparently contradictory results by combining the virial theorem an...
متن کاملComprehensive ground‐based and in situ observations of substorm expansion phase onset
[1] In this paper, we present comprehensive ground‐based and space‐based in situ geosynchronous observations of a substorm expansion phase onset on 1 October 2005. The Double Star TC‐2 and GOES‐12 spacecraft were both located within the substorm current wedge during the substorm expansion phase onset, which occurred over the Canadian sector. We find that an onset of ULF waves in space was obser...

The luminous tongues tend to be narrower and having We present ground-based electromagnetic data from the may occasionally develop into auroral torches which are MIRACLE and BEAR networks and satellite optical narrow, finger-like auroral forms that extend several observations from the UVI and PIXIE instruments on the degrees of latitude poleward from the auroral oval. Inside Polar satellite of ...
متن کاملTransition from substorm growth to substorm expansion phase as observed with a radial configuration of ISTP and Cluster spacecraft
Transition from the growth phase to the substorm expansion during a well-isolated substorm with a strong growth phase is investigated using a unique radial (THEMISlike) spacecraft constellation near midnight, including the probing of the tail current at ∼16RE with Cluster, of the transition region at ∼9RE with Geotail and Polar, and of the inner region at 6.6RE with two LANL spacecraft. The act...
