<i>Letter to the Editor</i><br> Why do ultra-low-frequency MHD oscillations with a discrete spectrum exist in the magnetosphere?

A new concept of the global magnetospheric resonator is suggested for fast magnetosonic waves in which the role of the resonator is played by the near-Earth part of the plasma sheet. It is shown that the magnetosonic wave is confined in this region of the magnetosphere within its boundaries. The...
