Zusammenfassung |
Pc3 geomagnetic field fluctuations detected
at low latitude (L'Aquila, Italy) during the passage of a high velocity solar
wind stream, characterized by variable interplanetary magnetic field conditions,
are analyzed. Higher frequency resonant fluctuations and lower frequency
phenomena are simultaneously observed; the intermittent appearance and the
variable frequency of the longer period modes can be well interpreted in terms
of the variable IMF elements; moreover their polarization characteristics are
consistent with an origin related to external waves propagating in antisunward
direction. A comparison with simultaneous observations performed at Terra Nova
Bay (Antarctica) provides additional evidence for a clear relationship between
the IMF and Pc3 pulsations also at very high latitudes.
