A systems science examination of the Earth's fully interconnected dynamic magnetosphere
is presented. Here the magnetospheric system (aka the magnetosphere–ionosphere …

Magnetic reconnection underlies the physical mechanism of explosive phenomena in the
solar atmosphere and planetary magnetospheres, where plasma is usually collisionless. In …

It is argued here that the inner heliosphere is filled with a network of entangled magnetic flux
tubes and that the flux tubes are fossil structures that originate at the solar surface. 65,860 …

Abstract The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission has obtained comprehensive
particle and magnetic field measurements. The Solar Wind Electron Analyzer provides …

We present first results of the magnetospheric magnetic field modeling, based on large sets
of spacecraft data and a high‐resolution expansion for the field of equatorial currents. In this …

We illustrate some fundamental alterations of the solar wind‐magnetosphere interaction that
occur during low Mach number solar wind. We first show that low Mach number solar wind …

The plasma sheet is populated in part by the solar wind plasma. Four solar entry
mechanisms are examined:(1) double cusp or double lobe reconnection,(2) Kelvin …

We present heliospheric current sheet (HCS) and plasma sheet (HPS) observations during
Parker Solar Probe's (PSP) first orbit around the Sun. We focus on the eight intervals that …

Dawn–dusk asymmetries are ubiquitous features of the coupled solar-wind–magnetosphere–
ionosphere system. During the last decades, increasing availability of satellite and ground …

This paper reviews the state of knowledge concerning the source of magnetospheric plasma
at Earth. Source of plasma, its acceleration and transport throughout the system, its …
