Investigation of the outer and inner low-latitude boundary layers

We analyze 22 AMPTE/IRM crossings of the day-side low-latitude boundary layer for which a dense outer part can be distinguished from a dilute inner part. Whereas the plasma in the outer boundary layer (OBL) is dominated by solar wind particles, the partial densities of solar wind and magneto...
