An investigation of the association between steady magnetospheric convection and CIR stream interfaces

It has been postulated that steady magnetospheric convection (SMC), a mode of response of the Earth's magnetosphere to solar wind driving, is caused by balanced day and night side reconnection. We investigate this possibility with a statistical study of return flows in the magnetotail during SM...
