Origin of the interhemispheric potential mismatch of merging cells for interplanetary magnetic field BY‐dominated periods
Download2007
Kabin, Konstantin, Rankin, Robert, Gombosi, Tamas I., Sofko, George J., Ridley, Aaron J., Watanabe, Masakazu, Clauer, C. Robert
When the dawn-to-dusk component of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF B-Y) is dominant, ionospheric convection exhibits a basic two-cell pattern with significant dawn-dusk and interhemispheric asymmetries. For IMF B-Y > 0 the duskside merging cell potential in the Northern Hemisphere is much...

Kabin, Konstantin, Liu, Wenlong, Rankin, Robert, Angelopoulos, Vassilis, Glassmeier, Karl-Heinz, Li, X., Sarris, T. E., Bonnell, John, Talaat, Elsayed R.
We present a case study of Field Line Resonances (FLRs) in the dayside magnetosphere, observed in both electric and magnetic field components at multiple L-shells near the equator. The event measured by the five THEMIS probes and the nearby GOES and Geotail satellites provides a unique...

It is shown that perpendicular gradients in shear Alfvén wave (SAW) dispersion regulate the localization of wave power on nightside geomagnetic L-shells where narrow Field Line Resonances (FLRs) form. We estimate the timescale for this process, ω0tc = 1/equation image, and demonstrate that it is...

Singer, Howard J., Murphy, Kyle R., Degeling, Alex W., Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Johnathan, Watt, Clare E.
Measurements from ground-based magnetometers and riometers at auroral latitudes have demonstrated that energetic (similar to 30-300 keV) electron precipitation can be modulated in the presence of magnetic field oscillations at ultralow frequencies. It has previously been proposed that an...
