Conjectured chaotic nature of the ionosphere-magnetosphere coupling in a reconfigurating magnetosphere
During substorms the magnetic field configuration changes in time; stretching of the magnetosphere during growth phase is followed by its collapse after the onset of the expansion phase. In this study the ionospheric origin oxygen ion dynamics in a time-dependent magnetosphere is analyzed. An induct...
