Triaxial magnetic measurements of field-aligned currents at 800 kilometers in the auroral region: initial results

Journal Article Armstrong, J C ; Zmuda, A J - J. Geophys. Res., v. 78, no. 28, pp. 6802-6807

A three-axis magnetometer experiment for measuring the magnetic effects of field-aligned currents at auroral latitudes is described. Some of the results obtained to date are presented, and some preliminary conclusions are discussed. (WDM)

Distribution of field-aligned currents and expected magnetic field perturbations resulting from auroral currents along circular orbits of satellites

Journal Article Akasofu, S I ; Ahn, B ; Kisabeth, J - J. Geophys. Res.; (United States)

The magnetic field produced by the auroral current system is computed along magnetic local time meridians at two altitudes, 300 and 500 km. The computation is based on a model of a three-dimensional current system that consists of field-aligned currents and ionospheric currents. The input data set is constructed by using magnetic field data obtained from the International Magnetospheric Study (IMS) Alaska meridian chain of magnetic observatories. The latitudinal distribution of the field-aligned currents and the associated Y magnetic field component are also discussed.

Field-aligned current model for ultralow-frequency pulsations in the auroral region

Journal Article Elias, C ; Assis, A.S. de ; Shigueoka, H - Journal of Geophysical Research

The authors have constructed a model of the auroral magnetosphere as a current-carrying nonhomogeneous plasma. They are able to model discrete alfven mode propagation in this model, which is consistent with observations of ULF waves. They show that magnetic flux tubes, supporting electric currents, can sustain alfven modes with very low frequencies.

Measurements of field-aligned currents in a multiple auroral arc system

Journal Article Sesiano, J ; Cloutier, P A - J. Geophys. Res., v. 81, no. 1, pp. 116-122

A rocket-borne experiment to study the currents associated with a system of multiple auroral arcs was conducted at Poker Flat, Alaska, at 1122 UT on February 2, 1972. The magentic field in the vicinity of the auroral system was measured with a cesium vector magnetometer. Possible configurations were inferred by constructing model current systems that reproduced the magnetic field variations measured along the flight path. The data are interperted in terms of a model current system consisting of two eastward electrojets and one westward electrojet and three pairs of oppositely directed Birkeland sheet currents, all lying in a plane approximatelymore »« less
