Zusammenfassung |
During the two dayside passes by the four-spacecraft MMS mission, several flux transfer events (FTEs) were observed by the MMS instrumentation at high temporal resolution. We focus here on the minor ion distribution functions, the ion moments, and the content relative to the major proton component associated with some of the longer-sampled FTEs. We also investigate the influence of the observed minor ion populations with the location of MMS relative to the reconnection line, and associated parameters such as season, local time, and solar wind conditions. |
