Journal ArticleDOI
MESSENGER Observations of Extreme Loading and Unloading of Mercury’s Magnetic Tail
James A. Slavin,Brian J. Anderson,Daniel N. Baker,Mehdi Benna,Scott A. Boardsen,George Gloeckler,Robert E. Gold,George C. Ho,Haje Korth,Stamatios M. Krimigis,Ralph L. McNutt,Larry R. Nittler,Jim M. Raines,Menelaos Sarantos,Menelaos Sarantos,David Schriver,Sean C. Solomon,R. D. Starr,Pavel M. Trávníček,Thomas H. Zurbuchen +19 more
TL;DR: Observations during MESSENGER's third flyby of Mercury suggest that magnetic open flux loads the magnetosphere, which is subsequently unloaded by substorms—magnetic disturbances during which energy is rapidly released in the magnetotail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence of high-latitude reconnecting during northward IMF: Hawkeye observations
R. L. Kessel,S.-H. Chen,James L. Green,Shing F. Fung,Scott A. Boardsen,Lun C. Tan,T. E. Eastman,John D. Craven,L. A. Frank +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first direct observations of reconnection at the high-latitude magnetopause (75°) during northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) in the form of sunward flowing protons are presented.
Book ChapterDOI
The Radio Plasma Imager investigation on the IMAGE spacecraft
Bodo W. Reinisch,D. M. Haines,K. Bibl,G. Cheney,Ivan Galkin,Xueqin Huang,S. H. Myers,G. S. Sales,Robert F. Benson,Shing Fung,James L. Green,Scott A. Boardsen,W. W. L. Taylor,Jean-Louis Bougeret,R. Manning,Nicole Meyer-Vernet,Michel Moncuquet,D. L. Carpenter,Dennis L. Gallagher,Patricia H. Reiff +19 more
TL;DR: The Radio Plasma Imager (RPI) as mentioned in this paper uses total reflection of electromagnetic waves from plasmas whose plasma frequencies equal the radio sounding frequency and whose electron density gradients are parallel to the wave normals.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the origin of whistler mode radiation in the plasmasphere
James L. Green,Scott A. Boardsen,Leonard N. Garcia,W. W. L. Taylor,Shing F. Fung,Bodo W. Reinisch +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the origin of whistler mode radiation in the plasmasphere is examined from three years of plasma wave observations from the Dynamics Explorer and three years from the Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration (IMAGE) spacecraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remote and in situ observations of an unusual Earth‐directed coronal mass ejection from multiple viewpoints
Teresa Nieves-Chinchilla,Robin C. Colaninno,Angelos Vourlidas,A. Szabo,R. P. Lepping,Scott A. Boardsen,Brian J. Anderson,Haje Korth +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the CME in the interplanetary medium comparing in-situ and remote observations, with analytical models and three-dimensional reconstructions.
