• Electric structure of dipolarization front at sub‐proton scale (2012, background): “DFs are also associated with the acceleration of energetic electrons [e.g., Fu et al., 2011; Asano et al. 2010].”
• Occurrence rate of earthward‐propagating dipolarization fronts (2012, background): “…et al., 2011; Huang et al., 2012] are frequently observed; the electric structure [Zhang et al., 2011; Fu et al., 2012] together with the acceleration of electrons [e.g., Fu et al., 2011; Ashour‐Abdalla et al., 2011] and ions [e.g., Zhou et al., 2010; Artemyev et al., 2012] are also reported.”
• On the current sheets surrounding dipolarizing flux bundles in the magnetotail: The case for wedgelets (2013, background): “The electron energization may be due to betatron or Fermi acceleration [Birn et al., 2004b; Fu et al., 2011] or both.”
• Dipolarization fronts as a consequence of transient reconnection: In situ evidence (2013, background): “…in transporting energy fluxes [Volwerk et al., 2008; Nakamura et al., 2011; Hamrin et al., 2013], accelerating electrons [Khotyaintsev et al., 2011; Fu et al., 2011; Vaivads et al., 2011; Artemyev et al., 2012a; Zhou et al., 2013; Wu et al., 2013], and ions [Artemyev et al., 2012b; 2013; Birn et…”
• Magnetic flux transport by dipolarizing flux bundles (2013, background): “This shrinkage is expected from the often-observed profile that a DFB’s trailing part has faster earthward flow than its leading part [e.g., Fu et al., 2011, 2012; Zhou et al., 2013].”
