What Controls the Dawn‐Dusk Asymmetry of Dayside Alfvénic Power: Interplanetary Magnetic Field or Ionospheric Conductance?
Abstract Alfvén waves are important carriers of solar wind energy into the Earth's magnetosphere and upper atmosphere. The observed distribution of Alfvénic power at low altitude exhibits significant dawn‐dusk asymmetry with different causes and impacts on the dayside and nighside. The nightsid...
