Electrostatic solitary waves in current layers: from Cluster observations during a super-substorm to beam experiments at the LAPD

Electrostatic solitary waves in current layers: from Cluster observations during a super-substorm to beam experiments at the LAPD

Electrostatic Solitary Waves (ESWs) have been observed by several spacecraft in the current layers of Earth's magnetosphere since 1982. ESWs are manifested as isolated pulses (one wave period) in the high time resolution waveform data obtained on these spacecraft. They are thus nonlinear st...
