Field-Aligned Currents in Auroral Vortices

Jay R. Johnson et al.

Summary: Research indicates that auroral bright spots are possibly linked to the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, with studies using a model to explore the relationship between current structure and boundary layer parameters. Findings show that vortex-induced currents and shear-flow-induced currents exhibit comparable maximum strengths but different structures, with the current structure dependent on the size of the vortex for the former, and the larger of Delta or L for the latter.

Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability Associated With Reconnection and Ultra Low Frequency Waves at the Ground: A Case Study

E. A. Kronberg et al.

Summary: The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability plays a crucial role in the transfer of energy and mass from the solar wind to the magnetosphere, generating Pc4 frequency Kelvin-Helmholtz waves with distinctive vortices. These vortices are associated with changes in magnetic field, density, and plasma populations, as well as reconnection events. Observations of magnetic field fluctuations, ion beams, and plasma distributions reveal the mechanisms of energy transfer and driving forces behind ULF wave formation.
