A. Balogh,Chris Carr,Mario H. Acuña,M. W. Dunlop,T. Beek,Patrick Brown,Karl-Heinz Fornacon,E. Georgescu,Karl-Heinz Glassmeier,J. Harris,G. Musmann,T. Oddy,Konrad Schwingenschuh +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the instrumentation used to measure the magnetic field on the four Cluster spacecraft and an overview the performance of the operational modes used in flight.
Book ChapterDOI
The cluster magnetic field investigation
A. Balogh,M. W. Dunlop,Stanley W. H. Cowley,David J. Southwood,J. G. Thomlinson,Karl-Heinz Glassmeier,G. Musmann,H. Lühr,Stephan Buchert,Mario H. Acuña,D. H. Fairfield,James A. Slavin,W. Riedler,Konrad Schwingenschuh,Margaret G. Kivelson +14 more
TL;DR: The Cluster mission as mentioned in this paper provides a new opportunity to study plasma processes and structures in the near-Earth plasma environment using four-point measurements of the magnetic field, which can enable the analysis of the three dimensional structure and dynamics of a range of phenomena which shape the macroscopic properties of the magnetosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conditions for the formation of hot flow anomalies at Earth's bow shock
Steven J. Schwartz,Götz Paschmann,N. Sckopke,T. M. Bauer,M. W. Dunlop,Andrew Fazakerley,Michelle F. Thomsen +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the interplanetary conditions surrounding all reported hot flow anomalies and found that current sheets should pass relatively slowly along the bow shock; that is, their normals should have large cone angles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cluster as a wave telescope - first results from the fluxgate magnetometer
Karl-Heinz Glassmeier,Uwe Motschmann,M. W. Dunlop,A. Balogh,Mario H. Acuña,Chris Carr,G. Musmann,Karl-Heinz Fornacon,K. Schweda,J. Vogt,E. Georgescu,Stephan Buchert +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the wave vector of low-frequency fluctuations in a space plasma is estimated based on a generalized minimum variance analysis in the terrestrial magnetosheath and the near-Earth solar wind.
Journal ArticleDOI
First simultaneous observations of flux transfer events at the high-latitude magnetopause by the Cluster spacecraft and pulsed radar signatures in the conjugate ionosphere by the CUTLASS and EISCAT radars

TL;DR: In this paper, an outbound pass through the post-noon high-latitude magnetopause region on 14 February 2001 was studied during a CUTLASS-CUTlASS SuperDARN data collection, and the magnetic footprint of the Cluster spacecraft during the boundary passage was shown to map centrally within the fields-of-view of the CUTlass SuperDarN radars, and to pass across the field-aligned beam of the EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR) system.
