Ion cyclotron waves in the Earth’s magnetotail during CASSINI’s Earth swing-by

The properties of low frequency magnetotail waves observed during CASSINI’s Earth swing-by are examined. A maximum in the distribution of the waves about half the proton cyclotron frequency and a peak at linear polarisation are found and their implications are analysed in detail. Data on the...
