Marchand, Richard, Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Solomon, Stanley C., Wang, Wenbin, Le, G. M., Wang, J. S., Lei, J., Rae, I. Johnathan
A new interactive M-I coupling model that describes the dynamic interaction between magnetospheric dispersive waves, compressional modes, and auroral electron precipitations is applied to investigate the geomagnetic electromagnetic pulsations observed in Earth's magnetosphere in terms of...

Origin of the interhemispheric potential mismatch of merging cells for interplanetary magnetic field BY‐dominated periods

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...

De Zeeuw, Darren L., Clauer, C. Robert, Kabin, Konstantin, Gombosi, Tamas I., Rostoker, Gordon, Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Johnathan, Marchand, Richard, Ridley, Aaron J.
In this paper we investigate the effect of changes in the interplanetary magnetic field ( IMF), solar wind dynamic pressure, and dipole tilt angle on the position of the ionospheric projection of the open-closed field line boundary (OCB) in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model. We carry out a large...

Papitashvili, V., Clauer, C. Robert, Kabin, Konstantin, Gombosi, Tamas I., DeZeeuw, Darren L., Rankin, Robert, Marchand, Richard, Ridley, Aaron J.
In this paper we use a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model to study the response of the magnetosphere-ionosphere system to a sudden change in the sign of the By component of the interplanetary magnetic field. We find that after such a change the magnetosphere responds as a linear...

Electrodynamics of magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling and feedback on magnetospheric field line resonances

Marchand, Richard, Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Solomon, Stanley C., Wang, Wenbin, Lei, J., Rae, I. Johnathan
We present a new dynamic model that describes coupling between standing inertial or ion-acoustic-gyroradius-scale shear Alfven waves, compressional modes, and auroral density disturbances. The model is applied to the excitation of field line resonances (FLRs) in dipolar and stretched geomagnetic...

Comparison of the open‐closed separatrix in a global magnetospheric simulation with observations: The role of the ring current

Kabin, Konstantin, Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Gombosi, Tamas I., Watt, Clare E. J., Ridley, Aaron J., Toth, Gabor, Milan, Steve E., Zhang, Jichun, Rae, I. Johnathan, Clauer, C. Robert, De Zeeuw, Darren L., Fenrich, Frances
The development of global magnetospheric models, such as Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF), which can accurately reproduce and track space weather processes has high practical utility. We present an interval on 5 June 1998, where the location of the polar cap boundary, or open-closed field...

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...

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...

Wright, Darren M., Watt, Clare E. J., Rae, I. Johnathan, Rankin, Robert
We present results from self-consistent simulations of the electron response to shear Alfvén pulses in the presence of non-uniform magnetic fields and the associated mirror force. We discuss how energies of resonantly accelerated beam particles are affected by the local phase velocity of the...
