Focus Group Goals
To advance the physical knowledge and improve the numerical modelling of:
- The magnetospheric particle precipitation (precipitation mechanism and characteristics, magnetospheric origin, auroral forms).
- The effects of particle precipitation on the ionospheric electrodynamics, with an emphasis on the ionospheric conductance.
- Response of the I-T system to precipitation and its feedback to the Magnetosphere.
