Journal ArticleDOI

First multispacecraft ion measurements in and near the Earth's magnetosphere with the identical Cluster ion spectrometry (CIS) experiment

TL;DR: The Cluster Ion Spectrometry (CIS) experiment as discussed by the authors measured the full, three-dimensional ion distribution of the major magnetospheric ions (H+, He+, He++, and O+) from the thermal energies to about 40 keV/e.
Journal ArticleDOI

Swe, a comprehensive plasma instrument for the wind spacecraft

TL;DR: The solar wind experiment (SWE) on the WIND spacecraft is a comprehensive, integrated set of sensors which is designed to investigate outstanding problems in solar wind physics as discussed by the authors, which consists of two Faraday cup (FC) sensors; a vector electron and ion spectrometer (VEIS); a strahl sensor, which is especially configured to study the electron ‘strahl’ close to the magnetic field direction; and an on-board calibration system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fully kinetic simulations of undriven magnetic reconnection with open boundary conditions

TL;DR: In this article, a new model is proposed that is open with respect to particles, magnetic flux, and electromagnetic radiation to examine undriven reconnection in a neutral sheet initialized with a single x-point.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lion roars and nonoscillatory drift mirror waves in the magnetosheath

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that Extremely Low Frequency (low frequency) or "lion" roars are closely coupled to quasi-periodic, large scale magnetosheath structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

A survey of the plasma electron environment of Jupiter: A view from Voyager

TL;DR: In this article, the in situ, calibrated electron plasma measurements made between 10 eV and 5.95 keV by the Voyager plasma science experiment (PLS) were analyzed and corrected for spacecraft potential variations; the data were reduced to nearly model independent macroscopic parameters of the local electron density and temperature.
