Current sheet flapping in the near-Earth magnetotail: peculiarities of propagation and parallel currents
We consider series of tilted current sheet crossings, corresponding to flapping waves in the near-Earth magnetotail. We analyse Cluster observations from 2005 to 2009, when spacecraft visited the magnetotail neutral plane near <i>X</i> ∈ [ − 17, − 8], <i>Y</i> ∈ [ − 16, ...
