Evaluation on the analogy between the dynamic magnetosphere and a forced and/or self-organized critical system
The dissipation power and size of auroral blobs are investigated in detail to examine the possible analogy between the dynamic magnetosphere and a forced and/or self-organized critical system. The distributions of these auroral parameters are sorted in terms of different levels of activity, name...
