This COSPAR Colloquium sequence offers with the most achievements that have been complete throughout the collaborative efforts between ISTP contributors; the plasma dynamics of magnetic reconnection in a skinny plasma sheet, the motion of the sunlight wind at the plasma inhabitants within the plasma sheet and round the magnetotail boundary layer, the connection among the substrom growth zone and the X-line formation within the magnetotail, and the temporal evolution of the dipolarization from from the near-Earth to the far away tail.

Magnetic Reconnection: MHD Theory and Applications

Magnetic reconnection is on the middle of many dynamic phenomena within the universe, corresponding to sunlight flares, geomagnetic substorms and tokamak disruptions. Written by way of international leaders at the topic, this quantity offers a finished evaluation of this primary procedure. insurance offers either a pedagogical account of the fundamental thought and a wide-ranging overview of the actual phenomena created through reconnection--from laboratory machines, the Earth's magnetosphere, and the Sun's surroundings to flare stars and astrophysical accretion disks.

These results suggest that the presence of the energetic particles in the magnetosheath adjacent to magnetopause is strongly correlated with that in the plasma sheet, because in the plasma sheet the energetic electrons and ions are rich in the dawn side and in the dusk side, respectively [Imada et al.. 2002]. Dawn Side Observations on November 29, 1995 To understand the leakage process of the energetic electrons in detail, we studied the dawn side magnetopause crossing event. R. From the top panel the thermal/middle energy and the energetic electrons flux, the z-component of magnetic field, the ion density, the ion temperature and the ion x-component bulk velocity are depicted.

2001]. The intensity of energetic electrons (ions) flux in the dawn side (dusk side) is higher than that in the dusk side (dawn side). They also discussed a correlation between the geomagnetic activity and the energetic particles burst events. Sarafopoulos et al. [2001] studied energetic particle spectrum (from 25 to 850 keV) using the Interball tail probe. They concluded that the dawn-dusk asymmetry is mainly caused by the betatron acceleration mechanism due to the global convection motion in magnetotail.
