Rankin, Robert, Ridley, Aaron J., Gombosi, Tamas I., Clauer, C. Robert, Watanabe, Masakazu, Kabin, Konstantin, Sofko, George J.
On the basis of magnetohydrodynamic simulation results for northward interplanetary magnetic field ( IMF) and significant dipole tilt, we describe internal reconnection processes that occur earthward of the magnetopause subsequent to magnetopause reconnection. We discuss the associated...

International Collaboration Within the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space: Framework for International Space Weather Services (2018–2030)
Download2018-05-06
Mann, I. R., Di Pippo, S., Opgenoorth, H. J., Kuznetsova, M., Kendall, D. J.
Severe space weather is a global threat that requires a coordinated global response. In this Commentary, we review some previous successful actions supporting international coordination between member states in the United Nations (UN) context and make recommendations for a future approach. Member...

Inverse resonance absorption in an inhomogeneous magnetized plasma
1985
Barr, H. C., Rankin, Robert. , Boyd, T. J. M., Gardner, G. A.
The linear mode conversion of a plasma wave to a light wave in a magnetized plasma has been examined theoretically and by computer simulation. This conversion is the inverse of resonance absorption exhibiting an identical dependence on magnetic field and density scale length with an optimum...

Kelvin‐Helmholtz unstable magnetotail flow channels: Deceleration and radiation of MHD waves
Download2014
Turkakin, Hava, Rankin, Robert, Mann, Ian R.
The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) of magnetotail flow channels associated with bursty bulk flows (BBFs) is investigated. MHD oscillations of the channel in both kink and sausage modes are investigated for KHI, and both the primary and secondary KHIs are found that drive MHD waves. These...

Kinetic theory of stimulated Raman sidescattering from magnetized plasmas
1985
Boyd, T. J. M., Rankin, Robert
A theory of stimulated Raman sidescattering in magnetized plasmas is presented based on a solution of the Vlasov–Maxwell equations. The incident laser light, in the form of extraordinary mode radiation, decays into light waves which propagate along the uniform magnetic field as right or left...

Lord of the Rings - Return of the King: Swift-XRT observations of dust scattering rings around V404 Cygni
Download2016-01-01
Beardmore, A. P., Willingale, R., Kuulkers, E., Altamirano, Diego, Motta, S. E., Osborne, J. P., Page, Kim L., Sivakoff, Gregory Robert
On 2015 June 15, the black hole X-ray binary V404 Cygni went into outburst, exhibiting extreme X-ray variability which culminated in a final flare on June 26. Over the following days, the Swift-X-ray Telescope detected a series of bright rings, comprising five main components that expanded and...

Zhang, Zhongli, Gilfanov, Marat, Voss, Rasmus, Sivakoff, Gregory Robert, Kraft, Ralph P., Brassington, Nicola J., Kundu, Arunav, Jordán, Andrés Jordán, Sarazin, Craig, L.
Aims. Based on the archival data from the Chandra observations of nearby galaxies, we study different sub populations of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) – dynamically formed systems in globular clusters (GCs) and in the nucleus of M 31 and (presumably primordial) X-ray binaries in the fields of...

Magnetospheric convection and magnetopause shadowing effects in ULF wave‐driven energetic electron transport
Download2013
Murphy, Kyle, Degeling, Alex W., Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Johnathan
Magnetospheric radiation belt electron transport in the presence of ULF waves and a convection electric field is investigated using a model that includes a nightside plasma sheet source and electron losses by magnetopause shadowing. Narrow-band ULF waves launched from a prescribed dayside...

Mann, I. R., Kabin, Konstantin, Donovan, E. F., Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Jonathan, Marchand, Richard
We present theory and ground-based observations of field-line resonances (FLRs) excited in Earth's magnetosphere. Three FLR observations are reported, which correspond to large-scale standing shear Alfven wave (SAW) oscillations on nightside field lines extending from premidnight to close to...

Tetarenko, Alexandra Jean, Freeman, P., Rosolowsky, E. W., Miller-Jones, James C. A., Sivakoff, Gregory Robert
We present Atacama Large Millimetre/Sub-Millimetre Array (ALMA) observations of IRAS 19132+1035, a candidate jet–interstellar medium (ISM) interaction zone near the black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) GRS 1915+105. With these ALMA observations (combining data from the 12 m array and the Atacama...
