Plasma flows, Birkeland currents and auroral forms in relation to the Svalgaard-Mansurov effect
The traditional explanation of the polar cap magnetic deflections, referred to as the Svalgaard-Mansurov effect, is in terms of currents associated with ionospheric flow resulting from the release of magnetic tension on newly open magnetic field lines. In this study, we aim at an updated descr...
