Average properties of the magnetic reconnection ion diffusion region in the Earth's magnetotail: The 2001–2005 Cluster observations and comparison with simulations (2009, methodology): “…evidence supporting this two‐scale model were based on observations of Hall currents and Hall fields along the separatrices [Fujimoto et al., 1997; Nagai et al., 2001] as well as in the vicinity of the diffusion region in the Earth’s magnetopause and magnetotail [Øieroset et al., 2001; Mozer et…”
Geotail observations of magnetic flux ropes in the plasma sheet (2003, background): “In particular, the mean distance to the near-Earth neutral line (NENL) at substorm onset has been determined to be X 25 RE [Nagai et al., 1998a] and direct measurements in the vicinity of active neutral lines were returned [Hoshino, 1998; Nagai et al., 2001].”
Current sheet structure near magnetic X‐line observed by Cluster (2003, background): “A double-peak current structure had already been detected in the distant tail by Hoshino et al. [1996] from the statistical analysis of Geotail measurements.”
Particle Acceleration in the Magnetotail and Aurora (2012, background): “The polarization electric field is induced in association with the Hall reconnection (e.g., Birn et al. 2001; Nagai et al. 2001).”
Multi-point observations of the Hall electromagnetic field and secondary island formation during magnetic reconnection (2006, background): “…the Hall magnetic field in the vicinity of the expected location of the reconnection site by the Geotail satellite in the near-Earth magnetotail [Nagai et al., 2001; Asano et al., 2004], by Wind in the distant magnetotail [Øieroset et al., 2001], and by Polar at the dayside magnetopause [Mozer…”
