Journal ArticleDOI
Global numerical simulation of the growth phase and the expansion onset for a substorm observed by Viking
TL;DR: The first global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of an actual magnetospheric substorm, which was recorded by the Viking spacecraft on October 19, 1986, was reported in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topological structure of the magnetotail as a function of interplanetary magnetic field direction
TL;DR: In this article, the location of the separatrix between unconnected IMF magnetosheath field lines and reconnected field lines which penetrate the magnetopause and connect to the polar ionosphere is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impulsive enhancements of oxygen ions during substorms
Mei-Ching Fok,Thomas E. Moore,Pontus Brandt,Dominique Delcourt,Steven P. Slinker,Joel A. Fedder +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, two possible sources are suggested: direct injection from the ionosphere and energization of preexisting oxygen ions in the magnetosphere, and numerical simulations are performed to examine these two mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of the ionosphere to a density pulse in the solar wind: Simulation of traveling convection vortices
TL;DR: In this paper, the Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere response to a density pulse in the solar wind using a global 3D MHD simulation model is analyzed and the results are interpreted as a hydromagnetic wave propagating in the inhomogeneous magnetosphere plasma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron energy and electric field estimates in sprites derived from ionized and neutral N2 emissions
Jeff S. Morrill,Eric Bucsela,Carl L. Siefring,Matt Heavner,S. Berg,D. R. Moudry,Steven P. Slinker,Richard F. Fernsler,Eugene M. Wescott,Davis D. Sentman,D. L. Osborne +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discussed the observations (∼1km resolution), instrumental and atmospheric corrections, and altitude profiles of ionized (1NG) and neutral (2PG) emission observed during a specific sprite.
