    Interplanetary magnetic field control of high-latitude activity on July 29, 1977 (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Multisatellite particle and magnetic field data for the substorms of July 29, 1977, show auroral-like activity above 80 deg invariant latitude during the recovery period. The movement of auroral zone activity to high latitudes followed the substorm sequence, at which time the inferred interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) was strongly northward. Electron energy spectra indicative of a field-aligned potential drop, and the absence of supporting precipitating ions, are found at latitudes greater than 80 deg. The north-south symmetry of these observations suggests that the events are on closed field lines. It is noted the very strong northward IMF connected to the sunward tilted geomagnetic dipole field plays a role in the driving of strong Birkeland and ionospheric current systems in the northern polar regions, while eliminating them from the southern polar regions.

    Mirror instability and the origin of morningside auroral structure (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Auroral optical imagery shows marked differences between auroral features of the evening and morning sectors: The separation between diffuse and discrete auroras in the evening sector is not distinct in the morning sector, which is dominated by auroral patches and multiple banded structures aligned along some direction. Plasma distribution function signatures also show marked differences: downward electron beams and inverted-V signatures prefer the evening sector, while the electron spectra on the morning sector are similar to the diffuse aurora. We have constructed a theory of morningside auroras consistent with these features. The theory is based on modulation of the growth rates of electron cyclotron waves by the mirror instability, which is in turn driven by inward-convected ions that have become anisotropic. This modulation produces alternating bands of enhanced and reduced electron precipitation which approximate the observed multiple auroral bands and patches of the morning sector.

    Plasma and electric field boundaries at high and low altitudes on July 29, 1977 (1982)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Hot plasma observations at high and low altitudes were compared. The plasma ion composition at high altitudes outside the plasmasphere was 0+. Heavy ions were also observed at low altitudes outside the plasmasphere. It is shown that at times these ions are found well below the plasmapause inside the plasmasphere. Comparisons of the low altitude plasma and dc electric fields show that the outer limits of the plasmasphere is not always corotating at the low L-shells. The corotation boundary, the estimated plasmapause boundary at the boundary of the inner edge of plasma sheet ions were at the same position. The inner edge of plasma sheet electrons is observed at higher latitudes than the plasmasphere boundary during disturbed times. The inner edge of the plasma sheaths shows a strong dawn to dusk asymmetry. At the same time the inner edge of the ring current and plasma sheath also moves to high latitudes reflecting an apparent inflation of the magnetosphere.

    Low-altitude measurements of precipitating protons, alpha particles, and heavy ions during the geomagnetic storm on March 26-27, 1976 (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: During the geomagnetic storm of March 16-17, 1976, observations were made of precipitating protons, alpha particles, and heavy ions by two counter telescopes aboard the low-altitude S3-2 satellite. These observations are presented in this paper and their significance discussed. Briefly, a two-zone precipitation region is observed on the nightside, at L equals 2.7 and L equals 4.0 with an alpha/p ratio of about 0.008 in the low-latitude region and about 0.0009 at higher latitude at 0.4 MeV/necleon. The heavier ions, CNO nuclei, are seen in the low-latitude zone with a CNO/alpha ratio of about 0.056 at 0.25 MeV/nucleon.

    The magnetospheric response to 8-minute period strong-amplitude upstream pressure variations (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: This paper documents a series of brief, strong (delta p/p = 1), dynamic pressure oscillations that occurred in the region upstream of the earth's bow shock during a period of radial interplanetary magnetic field. The analyzed set of oscillations, which may be either intrinsic solar wind or bow shock-related phenomena, recur approximately every 8-10 min, and their magnetic field signatures occur nearly simultaneously over great distances transverse to the earth-sun line. The pressure oscillations appear to drive tailward-moving magnetopause surface wavelets. In turn, the surface wavelets can be identified as hydromagnetic waves with strong compressional components in the outer magnetosphere and as quasi-periodic variations in electron precipitation and high-latitude ground pulsations. Observations by spacecraft in the outer dayside magnetosphere are used to predict geosynchronous and subsolar magnetic field strengths, the location of the subsolar magnetopause, the solar wind dynamic pressure, and variations in the energetic magnetospheric ion flux.

    Trapped-particle evacuation - Source of magnetotail bursts and tailward flows? (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: Observational and theoretical evidence that the polar cap can expand rapidly enough during the growth phase of a substorm to release geomagnetically trapped particles from previously closed drift shells, enabling the particles to escape into the tail, are examined. Observations show that the moving separatrix can overtake convecting nightside plasma during intervals of polar-cap expansion. Models of this phenomenon suggest that closed nightside field lines can be evaculated of their particle populations, and it is noted that such evacuations can account for the occurrence of energetic-particle bursts in the tail.
