Decay of mesoscale flux transfer events during quasi‐continuous spatially extended reconnection at the magnetopause

Decay of mesoscale flux transfer events during quasi‐continuous spatially extended reconnection at the magnetopause

Abstract We present observations on 2 October 2015 when the Geotail spacecraft, near the Earth's equatorial plane, and the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) spacecraft, at midsouthern latitudes, simultaneously encountered southward jets from dayside magnetopause reconnection under southward inter...
