Scientific paper

During the funding period for NASA Grant NAG5-1480 which prior to December, 1, 1990 was known as NASA Grant NAGW-78, the group has made substantial progress on the various topics originally proposed. The research performed has resulted in two Ph.D. Theses, more than 50 refereed papers in various journals and conference proceedings, and 31 invited and 104 contributed talks at conferences and symposia throughout the world. The main results from this work are summarized in each of the sections outlined in the original proposal, followed by a complete list of the group publications associated with this grant, a list of all invited talks given during the last three years, and finally a listing of the contributed talks. Research topics include global magnetohydrodynamic simulations, structure of the dayside magnetopause, merging at the dayside magnetopause, polar wind, plasma waves in the distant magnetotail, slow shocks in the distant magnetotail, collisionless tearing instabilities in the magnetotail, and other problems.
