Magnetic turbulence and particle dynamics in the Earth’s magnetotail

The influence of magnetic turbulence in the near-Earth magnetotail on ion motion is investigated by numerical simulation. The magnetotail current sheet is modelled as a magnetic field reversal with a normal magnetic field com-ponent <i>Bn</i> , plus a three-dimensional spectrum o...
