Scientific paper

The method described in Wolf et al. [J. Geophys. Res., 111, A12218, doi: 10.1029/2006JA012010] is used to obtain the instantaneous pV5/3 (specific entropy) of flux tubes from single-satellite measurements of the magnetic field and plasma pressure. Fast, earthward flows are comprised of flux tubes of reduced pV5/3, i.e., ``bubbles”. Magnetic field and plasma data from the multi-satellite THEMIS mission are used to investigate the size of and the azimuthal dependence of pV5/3 within substorm bubbles in the near-Earth plasma sheet.
