The auroral O<sup>+</sup> non-Maxwellian velocity distribution function revisited
New characteristics of O<sup>+</sup> ion velocity distribution functions in a background of atomic oxygen neutrals subjected to intense external electromagnetic forces are presented. The one dimensional (1-D) distribution function along the magnetic field displays a core-halo shape wh...
