Four-spacecraft determination of magnetopause orientation, motion and thickness: comparison with results from single-spacecraft methods

In this paper, we use Cluster data from one magnetopause event on 5 July 2001 to compare predictions from various methods for determination of the velocity, orientation, and thickness of the magnetopause current layer. We employ established as well as new multi-spacecraft techniques, in which ti...
