Journal Article
Excitation and decay of solar-wind driven flows in the magnetosphere-ionosphere system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the high-latitude ionospheric flows and their excitation and decay and proposed a flow-free equilibrium configuration for a magnetosphere which contains a given (arbitrary) amount of open flux.
Journal ArticleDOI
The causes of convection in the Earth's magnetosphere: A review of developments during the IMS
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a detailed analysis of plasmas and fields in the vicinity of the dayside magnetopause using the International Magnetospheric Study by the ISEE 1 and 2 spacecraft and conclude that dayside reconnection is the dominant contributor under usual conditions.

TL;DR: The dual technique magnetometer system onboard the Cassini orbiter is described in this paper, which consists of vector helium and fluxgate magnetometers with the capability to operate the helium device in a scalar mode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetospheric asymmetries associated with the y-component of the IMF
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the y-component of the IMF on the open model of the magnetosphere is discussed in terms of the open models of the tail and its plasma populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of dayside flux transfer events observed by ISEE 1 and 2 magnetometers
TL;DR: Flux transfer events (FTEs) observed on both the interior and exterior of the dayside magnetopause region by the ISEE 1 and 2 spacecraft are noted to be a feature of the magnetosphere region covered by the spacecraft when the magnetic field in the magnetosheath has a southward component.
