Published in 2017 at "Cosmic Research"

DOI: 10.1134/s0010952517060065

Abstract: We have considered variations in fields and particle fluxes in the near-Earth plasma sheet on the THEMIS-D satellite together with the auroral dynamics in the satellite-conjugate ionospheric part during two substorm activations on December 19,… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Cosmic Research"

DOI: 10.1134/s0010952520060076

Abstract: When spacecraft cross the heliospheric plasma sheet (HPS) that separates large-scale magnetic sectors of opposite directions in the solar wind, multiple rapid fluctuations in the sign of the magnetic radial component are often observed. These… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Annales Geophysicae"

DOI: 10.5194/angeo-36-1183-2018

Abstract: Abstract. Fast plasma flows produced as outflow jets from reconnection sites or X lines are a key feature of the dynamics in the Earth's magnetosphere. We have used a polar plane simulation of the hybrid-Vlasov model… read more here.
