On differentiating multiple types of ULF magnetospheric waves in response to solar wind periodic density structures

S Di Matteo, U Villante, N Viall, L Kepko… - Journal of …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Identifying the nature and source of ultra‐low frequencies (ULF) waves (f⪅ 4 mHz) at
discrete frequencies in the Earth's magnetosphere is a complex task. The challenge comes …

Periodic mesoscale density structures comprise a significant fraction of the solar wind and are formed at the Sun

L Kepko, NM Viall, S DiMatteo - Journal of Geophysical …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Mesoscale density structures in the solar wind are often periodic, with f∼ 0.1–5 mHz. They
are trains of advected density structures with radial length scales of∼ 100–10,000 Mm …
