Statistical characteristics of bursty bulk flow events

Using a common methodology to analyze data from the AMPTE/IRM and ISEE 2 satellites the authors report on the statistical properties of bursty bulk flow events (BBFs) in the inner plasma sheet (IPS).…

Bursty bulk flows in the inner central plasma sheet

High speed flows in the Earth's Inner Central Plasma Sheet (ICPS) occur during enhanced flow intervals that have been termed Bursty Bulk Flow (BBF) events. The importance of different flow magnitude…

THE CLUSTER MAGNETIC FIELD INVESTIGATION

The Cluster mission provides a new opportunity to study plasma processes and structures in the near-Earth plasma environment. Four-point measurements of the magnetic field will enable the analysis of…

Subsurface Oceans on Europa and Callisto: Constraints from Galileo Magnetometer Observations

Magnetic field perturbations measured during Galileo flybys of Europa and Callisto are consistent with dipole fields induced by the temporal variations of the ambient jovian magnetospheric field.…

The Permanent and Inductive Magnetic Moments of Ganymede

Data acquired by the Galileo magnetometer on five passes by Ganymede have been used to characterize Ganymede's internal magnetic moments. Three of the five passes were useful for determination of the…

Induced magnetic fields as evidence for subsurface oceans in Europa and Callisto

P perturbations of the external magnetic fields (associated with Jupiter's inner magnetosphere) in the vicinity of both Europa and Callisto are reported, and it is argued that these conducting layers may best be explained by the presence of salty liquid-water oceans.

Magnetospheric interactions with satellites

The Galilean moons of Jupiter, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto are embedded within the magnetospheric plasma that approximately corotates with Jupiter that is, the plasma circles the planet at…

Flow bursts, braking, and Pi2 pulsations

We examine six near-Earth dipolarization events during which rapid flows were observed by Geotail at distances between 8 and 15 RE in the magnetotail. Each flow event was associated with local…

Relativistic electrons in the outer radiation belt: Differentiating between acceleration mechanisms

[1] Many theoretical models have been developed to explain the rapid acceleration to relativistic energies of electrons that form the Earth's radiation belts. However, after decades of research, none…
