Magnetospheric source region of discrete auroras inferred from their relationship with isotropy boundaries of energetic particles
According to observations, the discrete auroral arcs can sometimes be found, either deep inside the auroral oval or at the poleward border of the wide (so-called double) auroral oval, which map to very different regions of the magnetotail. To find common physical conditions for the auroral-arc g...
