2 Different Techniques for Measurement of Bs Bz Introduction: Bs: Definition Geocentric Solar Magnetospheric (GSM) Bz: The reasons to determine Bz Concept studies: How we may be able to determine Bz 1) In CMEs. 2) In the background solar wind Some successes in determining Bz

5 Why Determine Bz? Geomagnetic Substorm Activity A brief (2-3 hour) disturbance in Earth s magnetosphere that releases energy from the tail of the magnetosphere causing particles to be injected into the high latitude ionosphere. Geomagnetic Storm Activity A series of substorms, or a strong or prolonged enhancement of the global magnetospheric electric field. Both cause radio communication difficulties, particle precipitation into the ionosphere, aurora, satellite damage, ground-based currents, etc., A southward IMF is a common factor in the occurrence of both storms and substorms.

6 Generally the largest storms and substorms are associated with CMEs Two factors in CMEs are important. 1) Southward Bz. 2) Dynamic pressure caused by high speed wind.
