Dipolarization fronts as a signature of transient reconnection in the magnetotail (2009, positive): “A key to understanding the dissipation mechanism may be the test particle simulation results with ad hoc DF-like Bz and Ey profiles [Li et al., 1998, 2003; Fok et al., 1999; Jones et al., 2006] that explain many features of the dispersionless substorm injections [McIlwain, 1974; Moore et al., 1981;”
Particle acceleration in dipolarization events (2013, background): “…associated with earthward plasma flows (bursty bulk flows or “BBFs” [Angelopoulos et al., 1992]), as confirmed by recent Cluster and THEMIS (Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms) observations [e.g., Nakamura et al., 2002; Runov et al., 2011; Sergeev et al., 2009].”
Evolution of dipolarization in the near-Earth current sheet induced by Earthward rapid flux transport (2009, background): “The dipolarization happens first in a limited region and propagates azimuthally (e.g.,Nagai, 1982) as expected also from the finite width of the fast flows and accompanying magnetic disturbances (e.g.,Sergeev et al., 1996; Nakamura et al., 2002, 2004).”
Energetic ion acceleration in Saturn's magnetotail: Substorms at Saturn? (2005, background): “In the magnetotail the key observable features are magnetic field reconfiguration (dipolarization), strong plasma flows, and plasma energization [e.g., Nakamura et al., 2002].”
Dipolarization fronts as a consequence of transient reconnection: In situ evidence (2013, background): “[2] Dipolarization fronts (DFs) [Nakamura et al., 2002; Runov et al., 2009] are kinetic boundaries [Sergeev et al., 2009; Fu et al., 2012a] embedded inside high-speed plasma flows.”
Radiation Belt Storm Probes Ion Composition Experiment (RBSPICE) (2013, background): “Such abrupt magnetic field changes, which make the stretched tail field more dipolar-like, are often referred to as dipolarization fronts (Nakamura et al. 2002; Runov et al. 2009).”
Occurrence rate of earthward‐propagating dipolarization fronts (2012, background): “[2] The dipolarization front (DF) in the magnetotail, characterized by the sharp, large-amplitude increase in the Z-component of the magnetic field [Nakamura et al., 2002], is a tangential discontinuity [Fu et al., 2012] separating the dense plasma sheet from the earthward reconnection jet that…”
A statistical and event study of magnetotail dipolarization fronts (2011, background): “Nakamura et al.(2002) discussed the motion of a diplarization front.”
Magnetic flux transport by dipolarizing flux bundles (2013, background): “The leading edge of a DFB always shows a sharp Bz jump that has been defined as a “dipolarization front” [e.g., Nakamura et al., 2002].”
Wave and particle characteristics of earthward electron injections associated with dipolarization fronts (2010, background): “The injection signature in the near‐Earth tail also is characterized by a rotation of the magnetic field to a more dipolar configuration [ McPherron, 1972 ].”
