Global properties of magnetotail current sheet flapping: THEMIS perspectives

Global properties of magnetotail current sheet flapping: THEMIS perspectives

A sequence of magnetic field oscillations with an amplitude of up to 30 nT and a time scale of 30 min was detected by four of the five THEMIS spacecraft in the magnetotail plasma sheet. The probes P1 and P2 were at <I>X</I>=−15.2 and −12.7 <I>R<sub>E<...
