| 内容記述 | The solar wind exerts intimate control of the configuration of the magnetosphere by the reconnection of interplanetary magnetic field with the magnetospheric magnetic field. Thus the solar wind controls the energization of the magnetosphere proper including the ring current as well as the transport of magnetic flux to the tail and the consequent storage of energy there. The dynamics of the magnetopause are also controlled closely by the interplanetary magnetic field. The formation of flux transfer events, twisted tubes of flux across the dayside magnetopause, arise for southward interplanetary magnetic fields. Whether these flux tubes are connected to closed field lines or are completely open is not yet clearly resolved. |
