Successive Energy Conversion at a Stepwise Dipolarization Front

Dipolarization fronts (DFs), ion-scale magnetic structures characterized by sharp enhancement of northward magnetic field developed within plasma jets, have been suggested to play a crucial role in the energy transfer chain in the terrestrial magnetotail. Here we present the first observation of suc...
