Formation of field-twisting flux tubes on the magnetopause and solar wind particle entry into the magnetosphere

A global interaction between the solar wind with a southward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and the magnetosphere is studied using a semi‐global simulation model. A magnetic flux tube in which field lines are twisted is created as a result of repeated reconnection between the IMF and the outerm...
