摘要/Abstract

摘要： 太阳风动压的显著变化能导致沉降进入极区电离层的能量粒子通量以及磁层-电离层电流系发生扰动。磁层高能粒子沉降到极区上层大气并与中性气体碰撞所激发的弥散极光，能够对这种扰动做出相应的响应。基于斯瓦尔巴特（Svalbard）群岛新奥尔松（Ny-?lesund）地区北极黄河站优越的地理优势，我们利用安装在黄河站的极光全天空成像仪观测到了日侧弥散极光对太阳风动压增强的响应。通过2006年1月2日事件观测显示，随着太阳风动压的增强，日侧弥散极光在极光卵赤道向部分首先点亮并逐渐向高纬扩展，同时地磁环境也受到相应扰动影响。我们认为，随着太阳风动压的增强，日侧磁层顶受到压缩，磁层内波粒相互作用导致投掷角散射增强，使得沉降进入极光卵赤道侧电离层的高能粒子数密度增大，进而导致日侧弥散极光强度增强。

Abstract: The sudden enhancement of solar wind dynamic pressure can result in the disturbance on the flux of energetic particles precipitating into the ionosphere and the current intensity in magnetosphere-ionospheric current system. The diffuse aurora, which is excited by high-energy particles of magnetosphere precipitating into the upper atmosphere and impacting with the neutral gas, can respond to the disturbance. Because of the location of Yellow River Station (YRS) in Ny-?lesund, Svalbard is good for the optical observation of dayside aurora. A case of the dayside diffuse aurora was observed by the all-sky imager (ASI) in YRS, which intensively responds to a variety of solar wind dynamic pressure. With the enhancement of the solar wind dynamic pressure, the diffuse aurora on the equatorward of ASI’s field-of-view showed the intensity enhance and the poleward extension on latitude, the geomagnetic environment also showed a corresponding disturbance at the same time. We suggested that the dayside magnetopause is compressed because of the enhancement of the solar wind dynamic pressure. It can result in the enhancement of pitch-angle scatter by wave particle interaction in the magnetosphere. Consequently, the number flux of the high-energy particle scattering the loss-cone and precipitating into the equatorward ionosphere of auroral oval is enhanced, and led the emission increase of dayside diffuse aurora.
