Magnetospheric reconnection driven by solar wind pressure fronts
Recent work has shown that solar wind dynamic pressure changes can have a dramatic effect on the particle precipitation in the high-latitude ionosphere. It has also been noted that the preexisting interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation can significantly affect the resulting changes in the size, location, and intensity of the auroral oval. Here we focus on the effect of pressure pulses ...
متن کاملSawtooth oscillations directly driven by solar wind dynamic pressure enhancements
[1] We have examined four well-defined events of sawtooth oscillations in energetic particle flux and magnetic field at geosynchronous orbit. During all four events, nearly simultaneous energetic particle flux enhancements and magnetic field variations occurred at all MLTs for each sawtooth cycle. Geomagnetic H component data at low to middle latitude also show a global H increase simultaneousl...
متن کاملGeosynchronous magnetic field response to solar wind dynamic pressure pulse
[1] We present a study of the response of the geosynchronous magnetic field to abrupt enhancements of the solar wind dynamic pressure. Results are obtained separately for cases of northward and southward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) prior to and after the solar wind pressure jump. For pressure enhancements with southward IMF we find that the response of the geosynchronous magnetic field ...
متن کاملEnergetic neutral atom response to solar wind dynamic pressure enhancements
[1] We have investigated the response of the ring current to solar wind dynamic pressure (Pdyn) enhancement impacts on the magnetosphere by using energetic neutral atom (ENA) images obtained by the High-Energy Neutral Atom (HENA) imager on board the IMAGE spacecraft. In this work we present several events by distinguishing between pressure events where only the pure compression effects exist (w...
متن کاملMagnetospheric cavity modes driven by solar wind dynamic pressure fluctuations
[1] We present results from Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry (LFM) global, three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction. We use these simulations to investigate the role that solar wind dynamic pressure fluctuations play in the generation of magnetospheric ultra-low frequency (ULF) pulsations. The simulations presented in this study are driven with idea...
