• Auroral Arcs: The Fracture Theory Revisited 

      Haerendel, GerhardORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2021-01-15)
      The fracture theory for auroral arcs, developed by the author since 1980, compares the decoupling of the magnetic field from the ionosphere by the auroral acceleration region (AAR) with the breaking of a solid rod. In the ...
