Scientific paper
The present paper is concerned with a thorough investigation of the stability of the magnetopause boundary layer (MBL), taking into account an employment of the generalized equilibrium Harris-type model. The model contains the main shear property of the magnetopause, involving the rotation of a magnetic field vector with in the MBL. Attention is given to the model of the magnetopause boundary layer, the set of equations for electromagnetic perturbations, the dispersion equation in the vicinity of the drift-tearing mode stability threshold, a general criterion of the stabilization of tearing perturbations due to their coupling with ion-sound oscillations, marginal magnetopause thickness and spatial scale of the reconnection 'patchies', the influence of the convective draping of magnetic flux tubes along the magnetopause on the reconnection dynamics, the limitations of the theory in cases of small and large magnetopause rotation angles, and macroscopic pictures of spontaneous magnetopause reconnection.
