Scientific paper
It is shown that the plasma in an antisolar-convection layer (ASCL) accelerated along the magnetopause by a gas-pressure gradient away from the subsolar point to the magnetospheric tail can be decelerated due to the appearance of a current which is directed opposite to the electric field of polarization in the ASCL and which is a polarization-field discharge current through the ionosphere with a nonzero Pedersen conductivity. The plasma-deceleration effect in the ASCL is not that significant for quiet geomagnetic conditions but can increase significantly with increasing conductivity due to particle precipitation.
