André, M.; Vaivads, A.; Deng, X. H. +10 more

We analyze three dipolarization front (DF) events to investigate their dawn-dusk scales in the Earth's magnetotail using the Cluster measurements in year 2007, when the spacecraft separation is about 1.8 Re (Re is the Earth's radius) and is appropriate for investigating the DF scale. Based on the Minimum Variance Analysis (MVA) and the general sha…
