Fukunishi Department of Geophysicsand Astrophysics,Tohoku University,Sendai, Japan Center for Atmosphericand SpaceSciences, Utah State University,Logan Abstract. Akebono (Exos D) observationsdemonstrate that polar cap arcssometimes have a fine structure,that is, multiple (doubleor triple) arcswith spacingof a few tens of kilometers.The multiplepolar cap arcsare dominantlyobserved in the nightsidepolar cap region, suggestingthat low backgroundconductance favors the appearanceof the structuredarcs. A relationshipbetween the spacingand the averageenergy of the precipitatingelectrons is investigated.Results show that a higher energyleads to a wider spacing.Akebono observationsalso showthe existenceof a downwardcurrent region embeddedbetween upward current regions (arcs). Comparison of the observationswith resultsfrom a coupledmagnetosphere-ionosphere Sun-aligned arc model is made, which showsgood qualitativeagreement between the modelingand observationalresults on the spacing-energydependence and the effect of backgroundionospheric conductance.

UNCLASSIFIED/UNLIMITED The International Reference Ionosphere – Climatological Standard for the Ionosphere Dieter Bilitza Raytheon IS, Space Physics Data Facility GSFC, Code 612.4 Greenbelt, MD 20771 U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT The International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) a joint project of URSI and COSPAR is the defacto standard for a climatological specification of ionospheric parameters. IRI is based on a wide range of ground and space data and has been steadily improved since its inception in 1969 with the ever-increasing volume of ionospheric data and with better mathematical descriptions of the observed global and temporal variation patterns. The IRI model has been validated with a large amount of data including data from the most recent ionospheric satellites (KOMPSAT, ROCSAT and TIMED) and data from global network of ionosondes. Several IRI teams are working on specific aspects of the IRI modeling effort including an improved representation of the topside ionosphere with a seamless transition to the plasmasphere, a new effort to represent the global variation of F2 peak parameters using the Neural Network (NN) technique, and the inclusion of several additional parameters in IRI, e.g., spread-F probability and ionospheric variability. Annual IRI workshops are the forum for discussions of these efforts and for all science activities related to IRI as well as applications of the IRI model in engineering and education. In this paper I will present a status report about the IRI effort with special emphasis on the presentations and results from the most recent IRI Workshops (Paris, 2004; Tortosa, 2005) and on the most important ongoing IRI activities. -

Modeling Seasonal Variations of Auroral Particle Precipitation in a Global-Scale Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Simulation M
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 114, A01204, doi:10.1029/2008JA013108, 2009 Modeling seasonal variations of auroral particle precipitation in a global-scale magnetosphere-ionosphere simulation M. Wiltberger,1 R. S. Weigel,2 W. Lotko,3 and J. A. Fedder4 Received 20 February 2008; revised 8 September 2008; accepted 6 November 2008; published 14 January 2009. [1] A variety of observations have shown strong seasonal variations in a vast array of magnetosphere-ionosphere parameters, including field-aligned currents, cross polar cap potential, and precipitating electron energy flux. In this paper we examine how these variations are modeled in the Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry (LFM) global-scale magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the coupled solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere system. In order to account for changes in the solar wind conditions caused by the seasonal variation of the Earth’s dipole tilt we carefully select the solar wind parameters so that the effective driving conditions are the same across the March, June, and December intervals examined. The seasonal variation of the field-aligned current strengths is in good agreement with observations, with the sunlit hemisphere having more current than the dark hemisphere in the June and December intervals. However, in order to bring the modeled precipitating electron energy flux into better agreement with the observations we need to utilize a modified current-voltage relationship which includes a proxy for illumination effects. We provide a detailed description of the LFM’s magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling interface including how illumination effects are incorporated into the model. This methodology for including these effects does not allow for determining if changes in conductance or ionospheric density are responsible for the changes. -

Introduction to the Akebono (EXOS-D) Satellite Observations
J. Geomag. Geoelectr., 42, 367-370, 1990 Introduction to the Akebono (EXOS-D) Satellite Observations By studies during the last decade of the 1970s, it has become clear that auroral particles are not directly injected from the tail region of the magnetosphere butthat there are instead two steps involved in the acceleration mechanism. The first step of the energization process occurs in the tail region of the magnetosphere while the second is found in the spatial region where the electric field is developed in a direction parallel to the earth's magnetic field. It is believed that the region of this electric fieldexists between a range of altitude of 3,000 km to 20,000km, centering around 6,000km, on fieldlines connected to the polar ionosphere. Although the general features of these acceleration processes have been identified based on previous satellite observations, there still are basic questions that remain unsolved about the physics of the acceleration region. i) What is the initial causative agent for the formation of the acceleration region? Is it induced by fast plasma injection, high energy electrons, or by magnetic field as original currents? ii) Are the particles accelerated by an electrostatic shock, a double layer, or growing large amplitude waves? iii) How is the development of the regions of acceleration related to the occurrence of magnetospheric disturbances, called substorms? The EXOS-D satellite was designed to seek solutions to these questions by conducting direct observations of the particle acceleration regions above the auroral region, with eight scientific instruments: a) Electric field detector (EFD), b) Magnetic field detector (MGF), c) Very low frequency plasma wave detectors (VLF), d) Plasma wave detectors in high frequency range and sounder (PWS), e) Low energy particle spectra analyzer (LEP), f) Suprathermal mass spectrometer (SMS), g) Temperature and energy distribution of plasma (TED), h) Auroral television camera (ATV). -
