Ionospheric Cold Ions Detected by MMS Behind Dipolarization Fronts

Abstract Traditionally, dipolarization front (DF) is a discontinuity at the leading edge of the high‐speed plasma jets, separating hot tenuous plasma from the denser ambient plasma. The particles behind the DF are usually hot population resulting from various heating and acceleration processes there...
