Sub-keV ring current ions as the tracer of substorm injection
The dynamics of the energy-latitude dispersed sub-keV trapped ions inside the ring current region, the so-called wedge-like dispersions structure, were statistically studied using Viking satellite data. Probabilities with/without these signatures at various local times in the dayside are obtained in terms of different time-lags from the substorm activity monitored by the AE index. The structure...
متن کاملEnergetic ion injection and formation of the storm-time symmetric ring current
An extensive study of ring current injection and intensification of the storm-time ring current is conducted with three-dimensional (3-D) test particle trajectory calculations (TPTCs). The TPTCs reveal more accurately the process of ring current injection, with the main results being the following: (1) an intense convection electric field can effectively energize and inject plasma sheet particl...
متن کاملHybrid Model for Bulk Current Injection Probe
A new hybrid-model for BCI probe is derived . This model is built based on the probe's internal structure without refinements, and by carrying out just one electrical measurement for the reflection coefficient, so that it can be generalized and used in studying the effect of layout parameters in the aim of improving the probe high frequency performance, which helps the developer in design stage...
متن کاملHow do Dynamos Saturate ?
In order better to understand how dynamo systems saturate, we study the kinematic dynamo properties of velocity fields that arise from nonlinearly saturated dynamos. The technique is implemented by solving concurrently, in addition to the momentum equation, two induction equations, one for the actual magnetic field, and one for an independent passive field. We apply this technique to two illust...
متن کاملAnalytical study of the energy rate balance equation for the magnetospheric storm - ring current
We present some results of the analytical integration of the energy rate balance equation, assuming that the input energy rate is proportional to the azimuthal interplanetary electric ®eld, Ey , and can be described by simple rectangular or triangular functions, as approximations to the frequently observed shapes of Ey , especially during the passage of magnetic clouds. The input function is al...
