The polar wind is an ambipolar outflow of thermal plasma from the terrestrial ionosphere at
high latitudes to the magnetosphere along geomagnetic field lines. The polar wind plasma …

This review is devoted to ponderomotive forces and their importance for the acceleration of
charged particles by electromagnetic waves in space plasmas. Ponderomotive forces …

The polar wind is an ambipolar outflow of thermal plasma from the high-latitude ionosphere
to the magnetosphere, and it primarily consists of H+, He+ and O+ ions and electrons …

In February 1996, the POLAR spacecraft was placed in an elliptical orbit with a 9 RE
geocentric distance apogee in the northern hemisphere and 1.8 RE perigee in the southern …

The characteristics of the polar ion outflows as observed in the topside polar ionosphere by
the Dynamics Explorer Retarding Ion Mass Spectrometer are reported in this study. The …

A time‐dependent, three‐dimensional, multi‐ion model of the global ionosphere‐polar wind
system was used to study the system's response to an idealized geomagnetic storm for …

Electric field spectrum measurements from the plasma wave instrument on the Dynamics
Explorer 1 spacecraft are used to study the local electron density at high altitudes in the …

A semikinetic model was used to describe the steady state collisionless flow of the polar
wind along diverging geomagnetic field lines at high latitudes. Emphasis was given to …

We use the Polar Wind Outflow Model (PWOM) to study the geomagnetically quiet
conditions in the polar cap during solar maximum. The PWOM solves the gyrotropic …

A time‐dependent global model of the polar wind was used to study transient polar wind
perturbations during changing magnetospheric conditions. The model calculates three …
