Ionospheric cusp flows pulsed by solar wind Alfvén waves
Pulsed ionospheric flows (PIFs) in the cusp foot-print have been observed by the SuperDARN radars with periods between a few minutes and several tens of minutes. PIFs are believed to be a consequence of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) reconnection with the magnetospheric magnetic fie...
