Number density contours plotted in the noon meridional plane. Magnetic field models are indeed another integral component of the models that we are building. A scatter plot of raw magnetic field data is shown in Figure 3. 1hr are plotted for all activity levels. In this format, growth phase stretchings and dipolarizations are apparent as is the general trend for the model field in this sector to be somewhat understretched.
Preliminary analysis reveals, for instance, an interesting feature in the warm ion number density.
The appearance of a density enhancement of the energetic particle population near the magnetic equator should modify the magnetic field.
