Dayside Transient Phenomena and Their Impact on the Magnetosphere and Ionosphere

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the present understanding of dayside transient phenomena at Earth and other planets, their geoeffects, and outstanding questions are provided in this article , where coordinated in-situ spacecraft observations, spacecraft-borne imagers, ground-based observations, and numerical simulations are used.

Hybrid Simulations of a Tangential Discontinuity‐Driven Foreshock Bubble Formation in Comparison With a Hot Flow Anomaly Formation

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the formation of tangential discontinuity (TD)-driven foreshock ions and hot flow anomalies (HFAs) using 2-D local hybrid simulations where a reflected or an injected warm foreshock ion beam can interact with a TD whose half-thickness is comparable to the ion inertial scale.

Statistical Study of Favorable Foreshock Ion Properties for the Formation of Hot Flow Anomalies and Foreshock Bubbles

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors performed a statistical study of foreshock ion properties around 275 hot flow anomalies (HFAs) and foreshock bubbles (FBs) and found that foreshock ions with a high foreshock-to-solar wind density ratio (>∼3), high kinetic energy >∼600 eV, and large ratio of kinetic energy to thermal energy (> ∼0.4) favor HFA and FB formation.

The THEMIS Mission

TL;DR: The Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) mission is the fifth NASA Medium-class Explorer (MIDEX), launched on February 17, 2007 to determine the trigger and large-scale evolution of substorms as discussed by the authors.

The THEMIS Fluxgate Magnetometer

TL;DR: The THEMIS Fluxgate Magnetometer (FGM) as discussed by the authors was designed to study abrupt reconfigurations of the Earth's magnetosphere during the substorm onset phase and is capable of detecting variations of the magnetic field with amplitudes of 0.01 nT.

The THEMIS ESA Plasma Instrument and In-flight Calibration

TL;DR: The THEMIS instrument as discussed by the authors is designed to measure the ion and electron distribution functions over the energy range from a few eV up to 30 keV for electrons and 25 kV for ions, and it consists of a pair of electrostatic analyzers with common 180°×6° fields-of-view that sweep out 4π steradians each 3 s spin period.

Analysis methods for multi-spacecraft data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a survey of the literature on spectral analysis for the analysis of time series from a spacecraft carried instruments and their applications in the field of multispectral signal processing.
