Internally and externally induced deformations of the magnetospheric equatorial current as inferred from spacecraft data
Based on a data pool of 79 yearly files of space magnetometer data by Polar, Cluster, Geotail, and THEMIS satellites between 1995 and 2013, we developed a new quantitative model of the global shape of the magnetospheric equatorial current sheet as a function of the Earth's dipole tilt angle,...
