2724 Magnetopause, Cusp, And Boundary Layers
Scientific paper
We present Cluster CIS observations along the dusk flank magnetopause during an outbound orbit on November 20, 2001. Cluster detects magnetospheric oxygen ions both in the boundary layer inside the magnetopause and in the adjacent magnetosheath. Oxygen presence lasts for several hours while the spacecraft move from 22 to -2 degree GSM latitude at approximately 19 MLT. Just inside the magnetopause two different oxygen populations seem to coexist, a high energy population and a tailward flowing population which is detected also outside the magnetopause. The plasma three dimensional distribution functions measured by the three spacecraft are studied in detail and under variable interplanetary magnetic field orientation.
