DIP - Magnetotail Dipolarization and Its Effects on the Inner Magnetosphere

Models have shown that BBFs/DFBs/Mesoscale Injections are important for both ring current and radiation belt build-up, but it remains difficult to verify with observations and therefore the exact role remains an open question. Model results are inconclusive because existing models do not describe all the relevant domains (e.g., magnetotail, transition region, inner magnetosphere) self-consistently while capturing the required range of spatiotemporal scales. We therefore ask, How is plasma and electromagnetic energy transported through the plasma sheet to the inner magnetosphere at different spatiotemporal scales?

In this session, we will discuss the perennial question, What is the role of reconnection and/or other plasma instabilities in producing elementary magnetotail dipolarizations? How do the physical properties of the dipolarizations depend on their spatial location and the time of their appearance relative to the Dungey cycle?
