Almost 40 years ago the concept of the substorm current wedge was developed to explain
the magnetic signatures observed on the ground and in geosynchronous orbit during …

The magnetosheath flow may take the form of large amplitude, yet spatially localized,
transient increases in dynamic pressure, known as “magnetosheath jets” or “plasmoids” …

Using Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms observations
from four tail seasons, we study the three‐dimensional structure of the dipolarization front …

We discuss results of a superposed epoch analysis of dipolarization fronts, rapid (δt< 30 s),
high‐amplitude (δBz> 10 nT) increases in the northward magnetic field component …

Energetic particle injections are critical for supplying particles and energy to the inner
magnetosphere. Recent case studies have demonstrated a good correlation between …

Recent multi-point measurements, in particular from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS)
spacecraft, have advanced the understanding of micro-scale aspects of magnetic …

Abstract Anti‐dipolarization fronts (ADFs), characterized by the rapid increase of the
negative magnetic field Bz component, are typically formed at the leading edge of the …

Magnetospheric substorms are elemental processes of solar wind energy storage and
explosive release in Earth's magnetosphere. They encompass fundamental plasma physics …

We study energetic electron injections by using an analytical model that self‐consistently
describes electric and magnetic field perturbations of a transient, localized dipolarizing flux …

Chen and Wolf (1999) used a thin‐filament theory to construct a 2D model of a bursty bulk
flow (BBF) motion inside the plasma sheet. The modeling revealed that the low‐entropy …
