HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Ann. Geophys. and collaborators from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: Annales Geophysicae, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The model shows that a flow generates current sheets corresponding to upward field-aligned currents field-aligned potential drops and narrow bands of precipitating energy as in discrete auroral arcs. The authors develop a quantitative model that describes the quasi-static coupling between sheared plasma flows in the magnetosphere and the activation of discrete auroral arcs. The authors investigate magnetospheric plasma flows and fields that correspond to the first configuration described above, i.e. the plasma . . .
