Satellite-magnetosphere interactions at Jupiter: A review of Juno JADE/JEDI observations Abstract: Due to its inclined and highly elliptical trajectory, the Juno spacecraft passed frequently through magnetic flux tubes that were connected to the orbits of the Galilean satellites-Io,… Read More
The distribution of Birkeland currents in time and space Abstract: Birkeland currents communicate information between the magnetopause and the rest of the magnetosphere, flowing along magnetic field lines at Earth. These currents which underpin solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, and are… Read More
The Eye of the Geomagnetic Storm: Electrodynamics at High-Latitudes during Geomagnetic Storm Abstract: The Earth’s magnetosphere is coupled to the solar wind, and the ionosphere. The solar wind-magnetosphere coupling gives rise to electrical currents which flow through the… Read More
AERO-VISTA: mapping the Earth’s auroral radio emissions Abstract: AERO-VISTA is a twin CubeSat space mission that will use a novel vector sensor antenna along with traditional interferometry methods to map the Earth’s radio auroral emissions – auroral roar, hiss,… Read More
The eruption of a magnetic flux rope observed by Solar Orbiter and Parker Solar Probe Abstract: Magnetic flux ropes are a key component of coronal mass ejections, forming the core of these eruptive phenomena. However, determining whether a flux… Read More
