| 1 | Ion acceleration at dipolarization fronts associated with the interchange instability in Earth's magnetotail显示文摘It has been confirmed that dipolarization fronts(DFs)are the result of the interchange instability in the Earth's magnetotail.In this paper,we use a Hall MHD model to simulate the evolution of the interchange instability that produces DFs along the leading edge.A test particle simulation is performed to study the physical phenomenon of ion acceleration at the DF.The numerical simulation indicates that almost all particles move earthward and dawnward and then drift to the tail.The DF-reflected ion population at the duskside appears earlier as a consequence of the asymmetric Hall electric field.Ions that are distributed in a dawn-dusk asymmetric semicircle behind the DF tend to be accelerated to higher energies(>13.5 keV).These high-energy particles eventually concentrate in the dawnside.Ions experience effective acceleration by the dawnward electric field,while they drift through the dawn flank at the front,toward the tail. | LU HaoYu GE YaSong SUN Chao | 2020 | Science China(Technological Sciences)2020,63,11: | 0 |
| 2 | Magnetospheric Physics in China显示文摘In the past two years,many progresses were made in Magnetospheric Physics by using the data of SuperMAG,Double Star Program,Cluster,THEMIS,RBSP,DMSP,DEMETER,NOAA,Van Allen probe,Swarm,MMS,ARTEMIS,MESSENGER,Fengyun,BeiDa etc.,or by computer simulations.This paper briefly reviews these works based on papers selected from the 248 publications from January 2018 to December 2019.The subjects covered various sub-branches of Magnetospheric Physics,including geomagnetic storm,magnetospheric substorm,magnetic reconnection,solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere interaction,radiation belt,ring current,whistler waves,plasmasphere,outer magnetosphere,magnetotail,planetary magnetosphere,and technique. | CAO Jinbin YANG Junying | 2020 | 空间科学学报2020,40,5: | 0 |
