Swedish National Graduate School of Space Technology Cluster multi-spacecraft measurements: applications on transition layer development and location of the reconnection site Lars-Göran Westerberg 1, Hans O. Åkerstedt 1 and Hans Nilsson 2 1 Division of Fluid Mechanics Luleå University of Technology 2 Swedish Institute of Space Physics, Kiruna

Swedish National Graduate School of Space Technology Outline Introduction - Objective of present paper. - The magnetosphere and Cluster spacecraft orbit. - Magnetic reconnection and the Cluster mission. Cluster in situ measurements coupled with a 3D analysis. Conclusions and future work.

Swedish National Graduate School of Space Technology Objective of present paper  Combine results from a 3D analysis covering the plasma flow near a reconnection site with in situ Cluster observations, in order to study: Development of the magnetopause transition layer. Values on the anomalous transport coefficients ( ν + η d ), where ν is the kinematic viscosity and η d the magnetic diffusivity. Also estimate the distance from the observing spacecraft to the reconnection site.

Swedish National Graduate School of Space Technology Conclusions and future work  Maximum value of anomalous transport coefficients ~ 10 4 km 2 /s.  Cluster satellites pass the magnetopause ~ 0.5 R E from the reconnection site.  Magnetopause transition layer increases when moving away from the reconnection site.  Enhance the data analysis – statistical study of magnetopause crossings.  Develop the theory by including Hall terms as non- ideal effects.
