The high variability of the Sun's magnetic field is responsible for the generation of
perturbations that propagate throughout the heliosphere. Such disturbances often drive …

Abstract Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) is a novel self-
standing mission dedicated to observing the solar wind–magnetosphere coupling via …

In Earth's low atmosphere, hurricanes are destructive due to their great size, strong spiral
winds with shears, and intense rain/precipitation. However, disturbances resembling …

The impact of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) on the power networks at middle
and low latitudes has attracted attention in recent years with the increase of large‐scale …

A distinct class of aurora, called transpolar auroral arc (TPA)(in some cases called “theta”
aurora), appears in the extremely high-latitude ionosphere of the Earth when interplanetary …

Mode coupling is an important mechanism to excite Alfvén waves and has been extensively
investigated based on numerical simulations. However, no direct observational evidence …

Quantitatively estimating the energy input from the solar wind into the magnetosphere on a
global scale is still an observational challenge. We perform three‐dimensional …

The physics and chemistry of plasma–surface interaction is a broad domain relevant to
various applications and several natural processes, including plasma etching for …

The Earth's magnetosphere is the region of space where plasma behavior is dominated by
the geomagnetic field. It has a long tail typically extending hundreds of Earth radii (RE) with …

We propose to use the Moon as a platform to obtain a global view of Earth's magnetosphere
by a Lunar-based Soft X-ray Imager (LSXI). LSXI is a wide field-of-view Soft X-ray telescope …
