A theory of magnetic flux transfer at the Earth's magnetopause
Lou-Chuang Lee,Z. F. Fu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that the flux transfer events observed by ISEE satellites can be the result of multiple X-line reconnection at the dayside magnetopause, which may be caused by the development of a tearing instability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of multiple X‐line reconnection at the dayside magnetopause
Z. F. Fu,Lou-Chuang Lee +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the multiple X-line reconnection process for the dayside magnetopause was simulated based on a two-dimensional incompressible MHD model and it was found that magnetic flux tubes with a cross-section of ∼ 1 RE² are formed repeatedly every 5-10 minutes, consistent with satellite observations.
