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
Simultaneous Cluster and IMAGE observations of cusp reconnection and auroral proton spot for northward IMF

TL;DR: In this paper, the Tsyganenko-01 magnetic field model with enhanced solar wind pressure was used to map the magnetic-shear high-latitude magnetopause (MP) location to the vicinity of the IMAGE proton spot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multifractal structure of auroral electrojet index data.
TL;DR: In this article, the scaling properties of the auroral electrojet index (AE) time series were investigated using a multifractal approach, based on ''singularity analysis'' which can be interpreted as an indication of turbulence in magnetospheric dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of nonadiabatic ions to the cross-tail current in an O+ dominated thin current sheet
L. M. Kistler,C. G. Mouikis,Eberhard Möbius,B. Klecker,J. A. Sauvaud,H. Rème,A. Korth,Maria Federica Marcucci,Rickard Lundin,George K. Parks,André Balogh +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the O+ dominated thin current sheet is observed to stream from dawn to dusk across the tail, as predicted for nonadiabatic ions by Speiser (1965), and the current contribution from these ions is calculated and found that they carry about 5-10% of the cross-tail current.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of the separatrix region close to a magnetic reconnection X‐line: Cluster observations
Alessandro Retinò,Andris Vaivads,Mats André,Fouad Sahraoui,Fouad Sahraoui,Yuri V. Khotyaintsev,Jolene S. Pickett,M. B. Bavassano Cattaneo,Maria Federica Marcucci,Michiko Morooka,Christopher J. Owen,Stephan Buchert,Nicole Cornilleau-Wehrlin +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Cluster spacecraft observations to study the structure of a magnetic reconnection separatrix region on the magnetospheric side of the magnetopause about 50 ion inertial lengths away from the X-line.
