A Localized Burst of Relativistic Electrons in Earth's Plasma Sheet: Low- and High-Altitude Signatures During a Substorm
M. Shumko, D. L. Turner, A. Y. Ukhorskiy +10
Earth's magnetotail, and the plasma sheet embedded in it, is a highly dynamic region that is coupled to both the solar wind and to the inner magnetosphere. As a consequence of this…

Advanced methods for analyzing in-situ observations of magnetic reconnection
H. Hasegawa, M. R. Argall, N. Aunai +33
There is ample evidence for magnetic reconnection in the solar system, but it is a nontrivial task to visualize, to determine the proper approaches and frames to study, and in turn…

Picturing global substorm dynamics in the magnetotail using low-altitude ELFIN measurements and data mining-based magnetic field reconstructions
Xiaofei Shi, Grant K. Stephens, Anton V. Artemyev +2
A global reconfiguration of the magnetotail characterizes substorms. Current sheet thinning, intensification, and magnetic field stretching are defining features of the substorm gr…
