What is a geomagnetic storm

TL;DR: In this article, an attempt is made to define a geomagnetic storm as an interval of time when a sufficiently intense and long-lasting interplanetary convection electric field leads, through a substantial energization in the magnetosphere-ionosphere system, to an intensified ring current sufficiently strong to exceed some key threshold of the quantifying storm time Dst index.
Journal ArticleDOI

A survey of low-energy electrons in the evening sector of the magnetosphere with OGO 1 and OGO 3.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the low-energy electron population in the magnetosphere within the local time range ∼17 to ∼22 hours using the OGO 1 satellite and OGO 3.
Journal ArticleDOI

First multispacecraft ion measurements in and near the Earth's magnetosphere with the identical Cluster ion spectrometry (CIS) experiment

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.
