キーワード:STEVE、SARアーク、あらせ衛星

Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement (STEVE) is a latitudinally-narrow, purple band of emission seen at subauroral latitudes, which was discovered in 2016. Well-known Stable Auroral Red (SAR) arcs also occurs at subauroral latitude. Red and green arcs, which are similar to SAR arcs at subauroral latitudes but accompanied by green (557.7 nm) emission, have also been reported. However, the characteristics of the magnetospheric plasma and electromagnetic field variations as a source of these three types of optical emissions have not fully been studied, because of limited conjugate observations between magnetospheric satellites and ground-based optical and radio instruments. In this study, we report the auroral morphology as seen in all-sky image data obtained at seven ground stations (Athabasca, Gakona, Husafell, Kapuskasing, Magadan, Nyrola and Tromsø) during about four years from January 2017 to April 2021. By referring to the optical images as well as the ionospheric footprint of magnetospheric satellites (Arase and Van Allen Probes) calculated with the Tsyganenko magnetic field model (TS04), we have identified four cases of STEVE, four cases of SAR arc, three cases of green and red arcs in which these satellites were located in the conjugate regions in the magnetosphere of the optical emissions. For all three types of optical emissions, satellite data showed that the plasmasphere and ring-current particles spatially overlapped in the conjugate regions of the magnetosphere. Some electromagnetic waves in mHz to kHz were observed for STEVE and red and green arc events. SuperDARN radar data showed a strong westward plasma flow in the ionosphere, especially during the STEVE events, while the plasma flows associated with SAR arcs and red and green arcs are relatively weak and variable. Heat fluxes due to Coulomb collisions were larger for STEVE compared to SAR arc. However, the heat flux may have been underestimated for events that low-energy electrons were not measured. These analyses have provided the first-ever comparison of magnetospheric particle and electromagnetic field characteristics for the three types of optical emissions in the subauroral region. In the presentation, we will discuss the differences and similarities of the magnetospheric and ionospheric processes responsible for producing these three-types of emissions.
