  1. 1. Numerical modeling of auroral processes

    Author : Jörgen Vedin; Kjell Rönnmark; Robert Lysak; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; space plasma physics; auroral acceleration region; auroral current circuit; Alfvén waves; parallel electric fields; equation of state; fluid simulation; PIC simulation; Space physics; Rymdfysik;

    Abstract : One of the most conspicuous problems in space physics for the last decades has been to theoretically describe how the large parallel electric fields on auroral field lines can be generated. There is strong observational evidence of such electric fields, and stationary theory supports the need for electric fields accelerating electrons to the ionosphere where they generate auroras.

  3. 3. A Simulation Approach to Plasma Waves

    Author : Etienne Koen; Tomas Karlsson; Ioannis Kourakis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Electrostatic waves in the form of Broadband Electrostatic Noise (BEN) have been observed inthe Earth’s auroral region associated with high geomagnetic activity. Their broad frequencyspectrum consists of three electrostatic modes, namely electron plasma, electron acoustic andbeam-driven modes. READ MORE
