Middle Latitude Geomagnetic Disturbances Caused by Hall and Pedersen Current Circuits Driven by Prompt Penetration Electric Fields
The prompt penetration electric field (PPEF) drives the DP2 currents composed of the two-cell Hall current vortices surrounding the Region-1 field-aligned currents (R1FACs), and the zonal equatorial electrojet (EEJ, Cowling current) at the dayside equator, which is connected to the R1FACs by the Ped...
