Cluster EDI convection measurements across the high-latitude plasma sheet boundary at midnight

Description : We examine two crossings of three Cluster satellites from the polar cap into the high-latitude plasma sheet at midnight local time, using data from the Electron Drift Instrument (EDI). EDI measures the full electron drift velocity in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field for any field and dr...
