Penetration of magnetosheath plasma to low altitudes through the dayside magnetospheric cusps

TL;DR: In this paper, it was concluded that solar wind plasma can penetrate to low altitudes through the high-latitude cusp in the magnetopause, which is often referred to as the neutral point.

Satellite vacuum ultraviolet airglow and auroral observations

TL;DR: In this article, global observations of the airglow, aurora, and solar scatter radiance of the earth's atmosphere have been made in the 1100- to 2900-A wavelength region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dayside aurora and relevance to substorm current systems and dayside merging

TL;DR: In this paper, photometric keograms from the South Pole Station were used to investigate dayside auroral precipitation and the associated dayside field reconfiguration results from diversion of near-tail magnetopause currents through the nightside electrojet because of enhanced auroral ionosphere conductivity.

Geocoronal hydrogen: An analysis of the Lyman-alpha airglow observed from OGO-4

TL;DR: In this article, OGO-4 observations of hydrogen Lyman-alpha airglow surrounding earth, measuring dependence on solar zenith angle, were used to measure the dependence of the solar zener angle on the Lyman alpha airglove surrounding earth.

Auroral proton precipitation and hydrogen emissions

R. H. Eather
TL;DR: In the one to hundreds of kev energy range, proton flux at high pitch angles increases with decreasing proton energies as mentioned in this paper, and there is some suggestion that the proton density at high pitches increases with increasing energies.

Adiabatic motion of auroral particles in a model of the electric and magnetic fields surrounding the Earth

TL;DR: Adiabatic motion of charged particles in electric and magnetic fields constituting Earth magnetosphere was studied in this paper, where the authors presented a model of the magnetic field constituting the magnetosphere.

Field-aligned electron bursts at high latitudes observed by OGO 4.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors postulate electric field acceleration mechanism beyond 3 earth radii for ambient thermal plasma electrons, based on high latitude electron bursts observed by OGO 4, and postulate that the acceleration mechanism is beyond 3 Earth radii.
