Substorm onset: A switch on the sequence of transport from decreasing entropy to increasing entropy
Abstract In this study, we propose a scenario about the trigger for substorm onset. In a stable magnetosphere, entropy is an increasing function tailward. However, in the growth phase of a substorm, a later born bubble has lower entropy than earlier born bubbles. When a bubble arrives at its final d...
