We have examined the solar wind dynamic pressure enhancements during geomagnetic storm main phase. The Dst index has been used to identify more than 100 geomagnetic storms which occurred in the time interval of 1997 to 2001. We have selected only the events having the minimum Dst value less than -50 nT. In order to identify the pressure impact, we have looked at the low latitude ground H data as well as the solar wind pressure data themselves. (omitted)

Solar wind dynamic pressure enhancements are known to cause various types of disturbances to the magnetosphere. In particular, dynamic pressure enhancements may affect the evolution of magnetic storms when they occur during storm times. In this paper, we have investigated the statistical significance and features of dynamic pressure enhancements during magnetic storm times. For the investigation, we have used a total of 91 geomagnetic storms for 2001-2003, for which the Dst minimum $(Dst_{min})$ is below -50 nT. Also, we have imposed a set of selection criteria for a pressure enhancement to be considered an event: The main selection criterion is that the pressure increases by ${\geq}50%\;or\;{\geq}3nPa$ within 30 min and remains to be elevated for 10 min or longer. For our statistical analysis, we define the storm time to be the interval from the main Dst decrease, through $Dst_{min}$, to the point where the Dst index recovers by 50%. Our main results are summarized as follows. $(i){\sim}$ 81% of the studied storms indicate at least one event of pressure enhancements. When averaged over all the 91 storms, the occurrence rate is ${\sim}$ 4.5 pressure enhancement events per storm and ${\sim}$ 0.15 pressure enhancement events per hour. (ii) The occurrence rate of the pressure enhancements is about three times higher for CME-driven storm times than for CIR-driven storm times. (iii) Only 21.1% of the pressure enhancements show a clear association with an interplanetary shock. (iv) A large number of the pressure enhancement events are accompanied with a simultaneous change of IMF $B_y$ and/or $B_z$: For example, 73.5% of the pressure enhancement events are associated with an IMF change of either $|{\Delta}B_z|>2nT\;or\;|{\Delta}B_y|>2nT$. This last finding suggests that one should consider possible interplay effects between the simultaneous pressure and IMF changes in many situations.

2006년 상반기동안 GOES 10에 의해 관측된 > 2MeV의 전자에너지 채널에서 반복되는 상대론적 전자 증가 이벤트(GREE, Geosynchronous Relativistic Electron Event)가 4회 있었다. 이 현상들은 모두 코로나 구멍(Coronal hole)에서부터 나온 고속 태양풍(HSS, High Speed Solar Wind Stream)과 관련된 것으로 여겨진다. 약 27일 주기를 갖는 이 4회의 전자 증가 현상은 플럭스가 점점 증가하는 형태를 보인다. 현재까지 알려진 상대론적 전자 증가 현상의 주요 원인으로는 다음의 요소들이 언급되어 왔다: (1) 코로나 구멍과 관련된 태양풍 속도, (2) Pc5 ULF 파동, (3) 행성간 자기장(IMF, Interplanetary Magnetic Field) Bz의 남쪽 성 분, (4) 자기 부폭풍(substorm)의 발생, (5) 증가된 휘슬러 모드 코러스 파동(whistler mode chorus wave)과 (6)동압력(dynamic pressure). 따라서 이 논문에서는 2006년 상반기 동안 앞에서 언급한 6가지 현상 들을 분석하여 어느 요소가 상대론적 전자 증가 현상의 플럭스와 가장 가까운 연관성이 있는지 알아보고자 한다.
