Scientific paper

During the last few years we have worked on the entry of solar wind into the magnetosphere and on the control the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) has on the magnetosphere. Correlative data conclusively prove that both the solar wind and the IMF exert considerable influence on magnetospheric processes, and the magnetospheric substorm in particular. Our work on this subject may be roughly divided into two parts, particle entry and representation of the interaction of the IMF with the magnetosphere. We discuss particle entry first. We have quantitatively determined where on the magnetopause that low energy (solar wind) charged particles can gain entry to the magnetosphere.
