“…Heppner et al [1967] also found that the magnetic field in the region 10-16 R• decreased after the occurrence of a negative bay. Consistent with this evidence, Anderson and Ness [1966] correlated an increase in the electron island fluxes with a deerease in the tail magnetic field. Ness and Williams [1966] and Williams and Ness [1966] observed that the collapse of the high-latitude trapping boundary during magnetic storms was correlated with an increase in the magnetospheric tail field.…”

The concept of the auroral substorm is reviewed in terms of recent satellite measurements of the magnetospheric effects of a substorm, and a more general and inclusive terminology, the magnetospheric substorm, is suggested. In support of this suggestion, it is shown that the various forms of geomagnetic micropulsations and energetic electron precipitation that have been discussed in papers 1 and 2 occur at their respective local times during a substorm. Balloon X‐ray and micropulsation data obtained by the Berkeley group, as well as riometer absorption, earth currents, and standard magnetograms from several auroral‐zone stations, have been used.

“…It has been known that inside the plasma sheet the magnetic-field magnitude is lower, owing to the diamagnetic effect of the presence of plasma [Anderson and Ness, 1966;Behannon, 1970;Hruska and Hruskova, 1970;Mihalov, 16 12 B()') 8 ß A X 1970], and the direction of the magnetic field is no longer simply directed toward or away from the sun; it has a predominant north-south component [Ness et al, 1967;Behannon, 1970]. Furthermore, the magnetic field ::within the plasma sheet is highly , 1966], but this non-taillike magnetic-field observation was interpreted to mean that the magnetotail did not extend to 60 R• [Ness, 1967].…”

Nearly three years of Ames magnetometer data from Explorer 35 are used to establish plasma‐sheet configurations in the geomagnetic tail at the lunar orbit. The plasma sheet is defined either as a region with different field orientations from normal magnetic‐field directions in the tail, or as a region where the magnetic field variance is greater than elsewhere in the tail. The plasma‐sheet configuration at the lunar orbit derived in this manner is found to be similar to the distribution at 18 RE observed by Vela satellites. The seasonal dependence and variations with geomagnetic activity are also presented.

This paper reviews the principal results of direct measurements of the plasma and magnetic field by spacecraft close to the Earth (within the heliocentric distance range 0.7-1.5 AU). The paper gives an interpretation of the results for periods of decrease, minimum and increase of the solar activity. The following problems are discussed: the interplanetary plasma (chemical composition, density, solar wind flow speed, temperature, temporal and spatial variation of these parameters), the interplanetary magnetic field (intensity, direction, fluctuations and its origin), some derived parameters characterizing the physical condition of the interplanetary medium; the quasi-stationary sector structure and its connection with solar and terrestrial phenomena; the magnetohydrodynamic discontinuities in the interplanetary medium (tangential discontinuities and collisionless shock waves); the solar magnetoplasma interaction with the geomagnetic field (the collisionless bow shock wave, the magnetosheath, the magnetopause, the Earth's magnetic tail, the internal magnetosphere characteristics), the connection between the geomagnetic activity and the interplanetary medium and magnetosphere parameters; peculiarities in behaviour of the interplanetary medium and magnetosphere during geomagnetic storms; energetic aspects of the geomagnetic storms.
