Quiet, Discrete Auroral Arcs—Observations
Tomas Karlsson,L. Andersson,D. M. Gillies,Kristina A. Lynch,Octav Marghitu,Noora Partamies,N. Sivadas,J. Wu +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the basic characteristics of the auroral arcs, including occurrence in time and space, lifetimes, width and length, as well as brightness, and the energy of the magnetospheric electrons responsible for the optical emission are reviewed.

A diagnosis of the plasma waves responsible for the explosive energy release of substorm onset.
N. M. E. Kalmoni,I. J. Rae,Clare E. J. Watt,Kyle R. Murphy,Marilia Samara,Robert Michell,G. A. Grubbs,Colin Forsyth +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that auroral beads seen during the majority of substorm onsets are likely the signature of kinetic Alfven waves driven unstable in the high-beta magnetotail.

Journal ArticleDOI
The development of the auroral substorm.
TL;DR: In this paper, a working model of simultaneous auroral activity over the entire polar region is presented in terms of the auroral substorm, which has two characteristic phases, an expansive phase and a recovery phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neutral line model of substorms: Past results and present view
Daniel N. Baker,Tuija Pulkkinen,Vassilis Angelopoulos,Wolfgang Baumjohann,Robert L. McPherron +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the NENL model of magnetospheric substorms, including the role of coupling with the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field, the growth phase sequence, the expansion phase (and onset), and the recovery phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tail reconnection triggering substorm onset.
Vassilis Angelopoulos,James P. McFadden,Davin Larson,C. W. Carlson,Stephen B. Mende,Harald U. Frey,Tai Phan,David G. Sibeck,Karl-Heinz Glassmeier,Uli Auster,Eric Donovan,Ian R. Mann,I. Jonathan Rae,Christopher T. Russell,Andrei Runov,Xu-Zhi Zhou,Larry Kepko +16 more
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that substorms are likely initiated by tail reconnection, and are reported on simultaneous measurements in the magnetotail at multiple distances, at the time of substorm onset.

Braking of high‐speed flows in the near‐Earth tail
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied possible braking mechanisms of high-speed ion flows in the near Earth central plasma sheet for radial distances between 9 and 19 Earth Radii (RE) on the basis of observations made by the AMPTE/IRM satellite.
