Investigations of the degree of asymmetry across the dayside magnetopause under southward interplanetary magnetic field using GEOTAIL observations

Abstract The magnetic reconnection environment around the dayside geomagnetopause under long-lasting southward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions is investigated using the in-situ observation by GEOTAIL satellite from 1994 to 2019. We focus on the degrees of asymmetry in the plasma densi...
