| 内容記述 | A geometrically explicit three-dimensional model of the magnetosphere is proposed and compared with existing models. The proposed model is a bimodal combination of the classical open and closed magnetosphere. The plasma sheet is topologically contained in a closed field line volume which is exposed to the magnetosheath along the flanks. Boundary layer plasma at the flanks of the closed field line volume freely flows along field lines to the ionosphere and forms a complete border to the plasma sheet. The plasma sheet derives from the closed boundary layer plasma, which is in the same topological volume. The closed boundary layer between the clefts on the dayside is covered by plasma hood (the open field line equatorward extension of the mantle) when dayside merging occurs. |
