中文摘要 | We studied the ULF waves with a period of 30 s in the ion diffusion region of reconnection observed by Cluster satellites on 21 August 2002. The fast convective tailward ion flow accompanied with a large southward magnetic field component, a strong Hall magnetic field, and a Hall electric field demonstrates that the Cluster satellites are located in the ion diffusion region of reconnection. The analyses of wave properties using minimum variance analysis and timing method indicate that this wave is an obliquely propagating slow magnetosonic wave which is characterized by the anti phase relation between the magnitude of the magnetic field and the ion number density and by a propagation angle of around 130° with respect to the ambient magnetic field. This wave is generated by periodic magnetic reconnection. The periodic oscillations in the By and Bx components are driven by the periodic Hall current system, while the oscillation in the Bz component is driven by quasiperiodic convective tailward ion flows. The slow magnetosonic wave significantly influences the frequency of whistler waves and low hybrid waves excited by magnetic reconnection by changing the magnitude of the local magnetic field and subsequently the electron cyclotron frequency. |
