    CDAW 7 revisited - Further evidence for the creation of a near-earth substorm neutral line (1990)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Eastman et al. (1988) have interpreted the CDAW 7 substorm of April 24, 1979, previously taken as unambiguously supporting the near-earth neutral line model of magnetospheric substorms, in terms of spatial movements of a preexisting plasma-sheet boundary layer (PSBL) and its associated current sheets across the observing ISEE 1 and 2 spacercraft. It is presently noted that, by contrast, a reinvestigation of ISEE 1 and 2 energetic particle measurements around substorm onset on short time-scales shows the observed flux pattern to require the formation of a particle source eastward of the ISEE spacecraft, well within the plasma sheet, associated with the substorm onset. Strong flows were absent prior to substorm onset, indicating the temporal nature of the event, as opposed to an encounter with a preexisting PSBL containing large flows.

    Energetic ion anisotropies in the geomagnetic tail. I - A statistical survey. II - Magnetic field and substorm characteristics (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: A comprehensive data set from the ISEE 2 spacecraft is used here to perform a statistical study of events in the earth's central magnetotail that are characterized by high anisotropies of energetic ions. In about 75 percent of the cases the anisotropy vector deviates no more than 45 deg from the tidal axis. High-anisotropy samples within 45 deg of the tidal axis are dominated by the earthward fraction. High ion anisotropies are observed continuously for longer than 1 min only in a few cases. The probability of observing high ion anisotropies is significantly enhanced beyond about 16 R(E) downtail distance within a few earth radii of the neutral sheet and on the duskside of the magnetotail. The analysis is extended with respect to the local magnetic field and to the relationship between energetic ion anisotropies and substorm phases. It is found that the events can be well organized in terms of substorm expansion phase and substorm recovery. These relations and the magnetic field characteristics during the events support the notion that the near-earth source of tailward streaming ions is identical with a substorm neutral line.
