Global MHD modeling of resonant ULF waves: Simulations with and without a plasmasphere
We investigate the plasmaspheric influence on the resonant mode coupling of magnetospheric ultralow frequency (ULF) waves using the Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry (LFM) global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model. We present results from two different versions of the model, both driven by the same solar wind conditions: one version that contains a plasmasphere (the LFM coupled to the Rice Convection Model, whe...
متن کاملContinuous spectrum of shear Alfvén waves within magnetic islands.
The radial structure of the shear Alfvén wave continuous spectrum is calculated inside the separatrix of a magnetic island. We find that, within a magnetic island, there is a continuous spectrum very similar to that of tokamak plasmas, where a generalized safety factor q can be defined and a wide frequency gap is formed, analogous to the ellipticity induced Alfvén eigenmode gap in tokamaks. Thi...
متن کاملObservation of odd toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes.
Experimental evidence is presented for the existence of the theoretically predicted odd toroidicity induced Alfvén eigenmode (TAE) from the simultaneous appearance of odd and even TAEs in a normal shear discharge of the joint European torus. The modes are observed in low central magnetic shear plasmas created by injecting lower hybrid current drive. A fast ion population was created by applying...
متن کاملMagnetic Reconnection in Toroidal hi Mode Turbulence
Based on three-dimensional simulations of the Braginskii equations we show that for typical plasmaedge parameters the saturation of electromagnetic toroidal hi mode turbulence is controlled by the selfgeneration and subsequent annihilation of radial magnetic field perturbations. This should be contrasted with the electrostatic limit, where the growth of the linear hi mode is terminated by the o...
متن کاملEvidence of transverse magnetospheric field line oscillations as observed from Cluster and ground magnetometers
The dynamic spectrum of ULF waves from magnetic field data obtained by the elliptically orbiting Cluster satellites (with an apogee of 119 000 km, perigee of 19 000 km and the orbital period of 57 h) have been prepared in the frequency range 0 to 120 mHz when the satellite was near its perigee. The existence of field line oscillations, with increasing frequency in the inbound sector and decreas...
