Observations of Multiple X Lines Collisionless Reconnection in the Near Earth-Tail
Tang, Chao-Ling; Li, Zhong-Yuan; Wang, Rong-Shen
Observations of the Earth's magnetotail made by the Cluster II during 09:42 09:50 UT on October 1 2001 are presented. Two tailward magnetic flux ropes bounded by earthward and tailward convective high speed flows were observed. We directly detected the source of tailward high flow and the outflow region of earthward flow. Combining the observation…

This paper analyzes the simultaneous observations of the Flux Gate Magnetometer (FGM) and Plasma Electron and Current Experiment (PEACE) on Cluster Spacecraft, and the CUTLASS Finland radar between 11:00 and 11:40 UT on 11 February 2004. In this interval, the Cluster spacecraft array encountered the northern hemisphere high altitude cusp, and cros…

Liu, Zhen-Xing; Shi, Jian-Kui; Wang, Ji-Ye +3 more
A typical substorm process in the night-side near-Earth magnetotail company with the pile-up and depolarization process explored by TC-1 on sep 17, 2004. We analyzed the FGM and HIA data(4s resolution) with wavelet and FFT analysis method to understand the low-frequency wave in the pile-up and dipolarization process. The analysis results showed th…
