Ion Kinetics in Thin Current Sheets at Lunar Distances
Abstract The magnetotail current sheet plays a crucial role in substorm dynamics, affecting the entire magnetosphere. Formation and reconnection of thin (ion‐gyroscale) current sheets initiate magnetospheric substorms. Theoretical models suggest that a transient, demagnetized ion population is key e...
