1. Dynamic features of plasmapause revealed by in situ measurements from Van Allen and THEMIS Probes Sam Califf et al.

2. Density from Spacecraft Potential RBSP – N = 7241*exp(-V sc /0.356) + 114.6*exp(-V sc /2.073) – Calibrated with upper hybrid (EMFISIS), June 3-5, 2013, RBSPA fit applied to RBSPB – Scott Thaller THEMIS – THEMIS A (different parameters for each probe) N = (10^(-V sc /25.5)*18000 + 10^(-V sc /5)*6e4 + 10^(-V sc /2)*5e6 + 10^(-V sc /0.4)*1e11)/V thermal – Brian Walsh, Toshi Nishimura Plasmapause: minimum radial distance with density below 50 cm -3
