Space Plasma Dynamics : Instabilities, Coherent Vortices and Covariant Parametrization
The magnetospheric cusps are two funnel-like regions of Earth's magnetosphere where solar wind plasma can have direct access to the ionosphere. The cusps are very dynamic regions where wave-particle interactions continuously take place and redistribute energy among different particle population...
