Determining the Axial Orientations of a Large Number of Flux Transfer Events Sequentially Observed by Cluster during a High-Latitude Magnetopause Crossing
Flux transfer events (FTEs) are magnetic structures generally believed to originate from time-varying magnetic reconnection at the Earth’s magnetopause. Despite years of research, the mechanism of how FTEs are formed through reconnection remains controversial. In various models, FTEs exhibit differe...
