On the kinetic theory of subauroral arcs

E Mishin, A Streltsov - Journal of Geophysical Research: Space …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
We report on a novel scenario of subauroral arcs within strong subauroral ion drifts (SAID)‐
STEVE and Picket Fence. Their explanation requires a local source of low‐energy, ε< 18.75 …
