• Circulation of Heavy Ions and Their Dynamical Effects in the Magnetosphere: Recent Observations and Models (2014, methodology): “Using a self-consistent quasi-adiabatic model of a TCS (Sitnov et al. 2000; Zelenyi et al. 2000, 2006), it was shown that a cross-tail TCS has a multi-scale embedded structure like a “matryoshka doll,” with several levels of embedding.”
• Current sheet flapping motion and structure observed by Cluster (2003, background): “Other possibilities can include a strong concentration of the current in the central region due to the ion inertia forces in an anisotropic plasma [Sitnov et al., 2000], or more complicated distributions with double off-center peaks.”
