Localized Oscillatory Dissipation in Magnetopause Reconnection

J. L. Burch, R. E. Ergun, P. A. Cassak +26

Data from the NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission are used to investigate asymmetric magnetic reconnection at the dayside boundary between the Earth's magnetosphere and th…

Hybrid Simulations of Positively and Negatively Charged Pickup Ions and Cyclotron Wave Generation at Europa

R. T. Desai, M. M. Cowee, H. Wei +4

In the vicinity of Europa, Galileo observed bursty Alfvén-cyclotron wave power at the gyrofrequencies of a number of species including K, O, Na, and Cl, indicatin…

The parametric instability of Alfvén waves: effects of temperature anisotropy

Anna Tenerani, Marco Velli, Petr Hellinger

We study the stability of large amplitude, circularly polarized Alfvén waves in an anisotropic plasma described by the double-adiabatic/CGL closure, and in particular the effect of…

Different types of ion populations upstream of the 8 October 2013 interplanetary shock

Primoz Kajdic, Heli Hietala, Xochitl Blanco Cano

We show for the first time that different types of suprathermal ion distributions may exist upstream of a single interplanetary shock. ACE and the two ARTEMIS satellites observed a…

Cassini CAPS identification of pickup ion compositions at Rhea

R. T. Desai, S. A. Taylor, L. H. Regoli +9

Saturn's largest icy moon, Rhea, hosts a tenuous surface-sputtered exosphere composed primarily of molecular oxygen and carbon dioxide. In this Letter, we examine Cassini Plasma Sp…

Statistical study of auroral omega bands

Noora Partamies, James M. Weygand, Liisa Juusola

The presence of very few statistical studies on auroral omega bands motivated us to test-use a semi-automatic method for identifying large-scale undulations of the diffuse aurora b…
