A mode filter for plasma waves in the Hall-MHD approximation

Glassmeier, K. -H.; Motschmann, U.; Vocks, C.

A filter method is presented which allows a qualitative and quantitative identification of wave modes observed with plasma experiments on satellites. Hitherto existing mode filters are based on the MHD theory and thus they are restricted to low frequencies well below the ion cyclotron frequency. The present method is generalized to cover wave mode…

Analysis of thick, non-planar boundaries using the discontinuity analyser

Dunlop, M. W.; Woodward, T. I.

The advent of missions comprised of phased arrays of spacecraft, with separation distances ranging down to at least mesoscales, provides the scientific community with an opportunity to accurately analyse the spatial and temporal dependencies of structures in space plasmas. Exploitation of the multi-point data sets, giving vastly more information t…

Science tools on the Internet-access to information, data and models

Bilitza, D.

In just a few years the Internet has become an essential element in national and international science endeavors. Transfer of data, models, and related software across the net has skyrocketed. Interactive WorldWideWeb modules let the users do everything from simply specifying time periods for data retrieval to plotting complex data sets, to comput…
