Modeling the transition of the inner plasma sheet from weak to enhanced convection
[1] We seek to determine whether the adiabatic plasma transport and energization resulting from electric and magnetic drift can quantitatively account for the plasma sheet under weak and enhanced convection observed by Geotail presented in the companion paper [Wang et al., 2004]. We use a modified Magnetospheric Specification Model to simulate the dynamics and distributions of protons originati...
متن کاملRelation of substorm disturbances triggered by abrupt solar-wind changes to physics of plasma sheet transport
Substorm onset occurs within the near-Earth plasma sheet in the region that maps to the Harang electric field reversal observed within the ionosphere. IMF changes that are expected to reduce the convection electric field after 25 min of negative IMF B are well known to cause substorms. Solar wind dynamic pressure P enhancements following prolonged strongly southward IMF (B 8 nT) also cause subs...
متن کاملEvidence that solar wind fluctuations substantially affect global convection and substorm occurrence
[1] We have used examples of Poker Flat and Sondrestrom incoherent-scatter radar observations of flows within the ionospheric mapping of the nightside plasma sheet and of Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) spacecraft observations within the nightside plasma sheet to investigate whether the features found in the companion paper by Kim et al. (2009) withi...
متن کاملBallooning stability of near - Earth plasma sheet during the March 23 , 2007 THEMIS substorm event : A local analysis
In this work, we analyze the ballooning properties of the near-Earth plasma sheet in the presence of magnetospheric convection, during the March 23, 2007 THEMIS substorm event. Using the solar wind data from WIND satellite observation for the substorm event as an input at dayside, we reconstructed a sequence of global magnetospheric configurations around the substorm onset by means of OpenGGCM ...
متن کاملRelativistic-electron dropouts and recovery: A superposed epoch study of the magnetosphere and the solar wind
[1] During 124 high-speed-stream-driven storms from two solar cycles, a multispacecraft average of the 1.1–1.5 MeV electron flux measured at geosynchronous orbit is examined to study global dropouts of the flux. Solar wind and magnetospheric measurements are analyzed with a superposed epoch technique, with the superpositions triggered by storm-convection onset, by onset of the relativistic-elec...
