Zusammenfassung |
The double-gradient model of magnetotail flapping oscillations/instability is generalized for the case of oblique propagation in the equatorial plane. The transversal direction Y (in GSM reference system) of the wave vector is found to be preferable, showing the highest growth rates of kink and sausage double-gradient unstable modes. Growth rates decrease with the wave vector rotating toward the X direction. It is found that neither waves nor instability with a wave vector pointing toward the Earth/magnetotail can develop. |
