内容記述 | The concept of how magnetosheath plasma can cross the magnetopause is one of the key elements for a global view of the magnetosphere. According to this view, viscous interaction is the main process to produce convection of plasma in the magnetotail, resulting in auroral phenomena, and other related processes. The mechanism is illustrated herein. The key element is that the electric field is not constant, as assumed in reconnection theories, but reverse within the magnetopause current sheet. Particles, representing magnetosheath ions were traced as they impinge upon the magnetopause. |
