Use of Euler potentials for describing magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling
2006
Journal of Geophysical Research
1] We present a general formulation of the basic equations of large-scale magnetosphereionosphere coupling in terms of Euler potentials and describe a specific numerical implementation of this formulation in the context of the Rice Convection Model (RCM). When written in terms of Euler potentials, both the Vasyliunas magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling equation and the expression for bounce-averaged adiabatic drift assume particularly elegant forms, while the equation for the conservation of
