PC index as a ground-based indicator of the solar wind energy incoming into the magnetosphere: (1) relation of PC index to the solar wind electric field EKL
The polar cap magnetic activity PC index was approved by IAGA as a proxy for energy that enters into the magnetosphere during solar wind-magnetosphere coupling (IAGA Resolutions, 2013; IAGA Resolution, 2021). The paper summarizes experimental results attesting the validity of this PC index essence....
