Statistical analyses of Polar plasma wave data are performed to determine the occurrence frequency, intensity, and Poynting direction of ∼360 Hz to ∼1.8 kHz extremely low-frequency (ELF) electromagnetic waves (chorus, ...

It is shown that during the 30 October 2003 superstorm, dayside O+ ions were uplifted to DMSP altitudes (~850 km). Peak densities were ~9 × 105 cm−3 during the magnetic storm main phase (peak Dst = −390 nT). By comparison ...

Magnetic decreases (MDs) have been identified and studied throughout a Ulysses fast latitude scan that lasted from 29 February 1992 to 14 September 1993. Ulysses' distance was ∼5 AU from the Sun. MDs were unbiasedly selected ...

We experimentally identify mirror mode (MM) structures in the Voyager 1 heliosheath data for the first time. This is done using the magnetic field data alone. The heliosheath MM structures are found to have the following ...

A study of dayside ELF/VLF electromagnetic (EM) waves from L* = 2 to 9 and magnetic local time (MLT) from 09 to 15 was conducted using plasma wave data from the Polar spacecraft. EM waves were detected from L* = 4 to 9 ...
