Multi-site observations of the association between aurora and plasma convection in the cusp/polar cap during a southeastward(<i>B<sub>y</sub></i> <u>~</u> |<i>B<sub>z</sub></i>|) IMF orientation

In a case study we demonstrate the spatiotemporal structure of aurora and plasma convection in the cusp/polar cap when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz &lt; 0 and By <u>~</u> | Bz | (clock angle in GSM Y - Z plane: <u>~</u> 135°). This IMF orientation el...
