    Description: We are studying the magnetic cloud event of January 6-11, 1997. Specifically, we have investigated the response of the magnetosphere to the shock wave in front of the magnetic cloud on January 10, 1997 using data from WIND, GEOTAIL and POLAR spacecraft as well as ground magnetometer data. The WIND spacecraft, which was located at about 100 Re upstream from the Earth, observed the arrival of the shock wave front at 005OUT. Geotail was located at the equatorial magnetopause (approx. 8.7 Re), while POLAR was located in the northern dawn sector at 8.4 Re, 6.1 MLT and 61.1 MLAT. A magnetic signature was nearly simultaneously observed at about 0104 UT at the POLAR and Geotail spacecraft. Particle density increases were observed on WIND and Geotail, but not on POLAR. The UV aurora shows an asymmetrical dawn-dusk intensification and presubstorm activity. The significance of these findings will be discussed.

    Description: We analyze the structure of magnetospheric transients observed at the dusk-side low-latitude magnetopause with the Interball Tail Probe. Ion and magnetic field measurements are used to investigate one particular transient in more detail. This transient has distinct non-symmetric structure with the plasma characteristics and the flow properties of the leading part of the transient being quite different from those in the trailing part of the transient. The region separating these two parts corresponds to the change of the sign in the B(n) component. These observations support an earlier conclusion that some plasma irregularities within the Low Latitude Boundary Layer (LLBL), formed as a result of sporadic reconnection, disconnect from the magnetopause, propagate and dissipate in the magnetosphere, and form what we call Disconnected Magnetosheath Transfer Events (DMTEs).

    Description: The Geospace Magnetospheric Dynamics (GMD) mission is designed to provide very closely spaced, multipoint measurements in the thin current sheets of the magnetosphere to determine the relation between small scale processes and the global dynamics of the magnetosphere. Its trajectory is specifically designed to optimize the time spent in the current layers and to minimize radiation damage to the spacecraft. Observations are concentrated in the region 8 to 40 R(sub E) The mission consists of three phases. After a launch into geostationary transfer orbit the orbits are circularized to probe the region between geostationary orbit and the magnetopause; next the orbit is elongated keeping perigee at the magnetopause while keeping the line of apsides down the tail. Finally, once apogee reaches 40 R(sub E) the inclination is changed so that the orbit will match the profile of the noon-midnight meridian of the magnetosphere. This mission consists of 4 solar electrically propelled vehicles, each with a single NSTAR thruster utilizing 100 kg of Xe to tour the magnetosphere in the course of a 4.4 year mission, the same thrusters that have been successfully tested on the Deep Space-1 mission.

    Description: We are Studying the magnetic cloud event of January 6 - 11, 1997. Specifically, we have investigated the response of the magnetosphere to the shock wave in front of the magnetic cloud on January 10, 1997 using data from WIND, GEOTAIL and POLAR spacecraft as well as ground magnetometer data. The WIND spacecraft, which was located as about 104 Re upstream from the Earth (85.1, -55.2, -22.1) Re(sub GSM), observed the arrival of the shock wave front at 0050 UT. Geotail was located at the equatorial magnetopause (approx. 8.7 Re, 10.7 MLT, -7.46 MLAT), while POLAR was located in the northern dawn sector above the auroral zone at 8.4 Re, 6.1 MLT and 61.1 MLAT. A magnetic signature was nearly simultaneously observed at about 0104 UT at the POLAR and Geotail spacecraft. The Geotail spacecraft entered from the magnetosphere into the magnetosheath. Particle density increases were observed on WIND and Geotail, but not on POLAR. Two instruments on the Polar spacecraft (TIDE and TIMAS) actually observed a slight reduction in energy, density and temperature. The UV aurora shows a dawnside intensification. The shock wave did not cause an auroral substorm and therefore was not geoeffective.
