Structure of the subsolar magnetopause regions during northward IMF: First results from THEMIS
J. P. McFadden,T. D. Phan,C. W. Carlson,Vassilis Angelopoulos,Vassilis Angelopoulos,Karl-Heinz Glassmeier,Uli Auster +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the structure of the low latitude boundary layer (LLBL) and magnetosheath boundary layer during northward IMF was revealed by the THEMIS observations at the sub-solar magnetopause.

Statistical analysis of dipolarizations using spacecraft closely separated along Z in the near-Earth magnetotail
L. Palin,Christian Jacquey,J. A. Sauvaud,Benoit Lavraud,E. Budnik,Vassilis Angelopoulos,U. Auster,J. P. McFadden,Davin Larson +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the THEMIS mission includes three closely separated probes that provide the opportunity to analyze the small and meso-scale dynamics of the cross-tail current sheet in the near-Earth magnetosphere.

Auroral wave structures and ballooning instabilities in the plasma sheet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the THEMIS ground all-sky-imagers and NORSTAR-NASCAM multi-wavelength imagers together with a multi-spacecraft conjunction to identify the auroral wave structures and examine the dynamics in the plasma sheet.

Observation of isolated high-speed auroral streamers and their interpretation as optical signatures of Alfvén waves generated by bursty bulk flows
W. W. Liu,Jun Liang,Eric Donovan,T. S. Trondsen,G. Baker,George J. Sofko,Brian Jackel,Chih-Ping Wang,Stephen B. Mende,H. U. Frey,Vassilis Angelopoulos +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized the incipient event as isolated streamers, a phenomenon previously linked with bursty bulk flows in the plasma sheet, and found that the streamers exhibit an unusual convergent motion (equatorward from high latitudes and poleward from low latitudes) to form a complete flow channel.
