Earth Magnetosphere: Currents

Scientific paper

Field-aligned currents in the inner magnetosphere are studied by using ISEE-2 magnetometer data. A method is proposed to calculate ∇×B with single-satellite data. From the morphology of ∇×B in time (or L), a lot of large fluctuations are found in ∇×B near L = 5.5 RE corresponding to the field-aligned currents. The region of the projections of ∇×B along the magnetic field line onto the ionosphere is not symmetrical for the geomagnetic pole. The inner boundary is independent of the geomagnetic disturbance, but during substorms the outer boundary shifts equatorward.
