  This paper investigates the relative scintillation level associated with cusp dynamics (including precipitation, flow shears, etc.) with and without the formation of polar cap patches around the cusp inflow region by the EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR) and two GPS scintillation receivers. A series of polar cap patches were observed by the ESR between 8:40 and 10:20 UT on December 3, 2011. The polar cap patches combined with the auroral dynamics were associated with a significantly higher GPS phase scintillation level (up to 0.6 rad) than those observed for the other two alternatives, i.e., cusp dynamics without polar cap patches, and polar cap patches without cusp aurora. The cusp auroral dynamics without plasma patches were indeed related to GPS phase scintillations at a moderate level (up to 0.3 rad). The polar cap patches away from the active cusp were associated with sporadic and moderate GPS phase scintillations (up to 0.2 rad). The main conclusion is that the worst global navigation satellite system space weather events on the dayside occur when polar cap patches enter the polar cap and are subject to particle precipitation and flow shears, which is analogous to the nightside when polar cap patches exit the polar cap and enter the auroral oval.

  Plasma parameters and the subsonic flow from a capacitively coupled, cylindrical plasma source of the Njord helicon device are investigated by means of a Mach probe and a retarding field energy analyzer (RFEA). 13.56 MHz and 600 W RF power is inserted into the argon working gas under low-pressure conditions and moderate magnetic field. By means of a downstream field coil, the magnetic field is shaped from a purely expanding field to a configuration with more parallel field lines. It is shown that the downstream plasma density along the outer rim of the source increases significantly and there is a sudden increase by nearly 20 V in the plasma potential already after a moderate increase in the downstream magnetic field. The investigation of the flow indicates that current ratios derived from the Mach probe result in an apparent flow in the direction towards the source, while the current bratios derived from the RFEA indicate a flow in the direction away from the source. PIC simulations demonstrate that the acceptance angle of the probes, being nearly 180o for the Mach probe, and about 45o for the RFEA, can critically affect the current ratios and hence the subsonic flow measured by the probes in the weakly magnetized plasma in our device.

  The importance of an acceptance angle in the plasma diagnostics with ion energy analyzers is investigated by means of numerical simulations. It is shown that wide acceptance angles result in low energy tails in measured ion distribution functions (IDFx). For flowing plasmas or plasmas with beams, the orientation of the analyzer’s orifice gives different results due to bending of ion trajectories in the vicinity of the analyzer. It is demonstrated that the maximum in the IDFx is at energies lower than the plasma potential. Simulations are done with DIP3D, a three-dimensional particle-in-cell code.

  The stability of plasma can be related to the shape of its velocity distributions [1]. For instance, for ionospheric plasmas it is argued that ion velocity distributions can deviate from Maxwellian giving rise to plasma instabilities [2, 3]. In order to study the possibility for losscone instabilities in collisional plasmas with Hall currents, we have modified our particle-in-cell code to include collisional effects in a magentized plasma. We have the option of adding a DCelectric field in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field. We present the results from the self-consistent three dimensional simulations of the plasma velocity distributions under such conditions. In this study we investigate the role of collisions with the neutral component for the evolution and stability of the velocity distributions. In the most general case, we include elastic electron-neutral collisions, as well as charge exchange and elastic ion-neutral collisions. The results will be important for a detailed understanding of low frequency ionospheric plasmas, for instance in the E-region. References [1] O. Penrose, Phys. Fluids 3, 258 (1960). [2] J.-P.
