F-BURST – mapping of Field -aligned currents in the ionosphere and BURSTYbulk flows in the magnetotail.
Prime company: SWEDISH INSTITUTE OF SPACE PHYSICS (SE)FBURST aims at better understanding the ionosphere-magnetosphere coupling based on multi-spacecraft observations that can monitor the status of the high latitude ionospheric field aligned current system (FAC) and the conditions in the geomagnetic tail. In particular, this project focusses on the fast plasma jets detected at more than 60000 km from the Earth in the …
