Frozen-in condition for ions and electrons: implication on magnetic flux transport by dipolarizing flux bundles
Abstract The ability of dipolarizing flux bundles (DFBs) in transporting magnetic flux from the mid-tail reconnection site for near-Earth dipolarization is evaluated by two methods: the generalized Ohm’s law and the concept of flux preserving and line preserving. From the generalized Ohm’s law, the...
