Cluster observations of the entry layer equatorward of the cusp under northward interplanetary magnetic field

Various boundary crossings in the vicinity of the high‐altitude cusp region were experienced by the Cluster spacecraft when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) was northward. In contrast to the southward IMF cases, in which a turbulent and diffusive entry layer is present equatorward of the cusp...
