Yes, there is evidence of tidal impacts on the plasmasphere. Tidal forces from the moon and sun create a range of variations in the plasmasphere, including changes in density and temperature. These changes have been observed in auroral observations and in satellites. Additionally, these tidal forces can cause waves in the plasmasphere that can affect the density and temperature of the plasma, energy to the plasma, and disrupt the magnetospheric currents. Tidal forces can also affect the composition of the plasmasphere, as the tides can cause ionization and recombination of the plasma particles, resulting in changes in the abundance of various ion species. Tidal forces can also cause instability in the plasmasphere, creating plasma bubbles and other structures that can be observed with ground-based instruments.

 

Early scientists found a connection between the tides and the movement of the  thousands of years ago. More recent evidence suggests the moon's pull acts on the ionosphere as well. In this new study, the researchers wondered if the moon might also have an impact on the plasmasphere.

The plasmasphere is a toroidal mass of plasma that surrounds the Earth. It lies beyond the ionosphere and is made up mostly of electrons and protons. Its particles are charged by the ionosphere, and its outer boundary is known as the plasmapause.

The group found that they were able to isolate tidal variations in the shape of the plasmapause that could be associated with the position of the moon, clear evidence that the moon does exert an influence on the plasmasphere. They also found that they were able to see monthly periodicities in the changes in plasmapause.

The researchers propose that three  are responsible for the tidal variations: the existence of a two-body system—namely the Earth and moon—along with the existence of the plasma field and the existence of the magnetic field. They further suggest that similar tidal variations likely occur in other two-body systems throughout the universe.

Physicists observe a new form of magnetism for the first time

MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry " spintronic " memory chips. The new magnetic state is a mash-up of two main forms of magnetism: the ferromagnetism of everyday fridge magnets and compass needles, and antiferromagnetism, in which materials have magnetic properties at the microscale yet are not macroscopically magnetized. Now, the MIT team has demonstrated a new form of magnetism , termed "p-wave magnetism." Physicists have long observed that electrons of atoms in regular ferromagnets share the same orientation of "spin," like so many tiny compasses pointing in the same direction. This spin alignment generates a magnetic field, which gives a ferromagnet its inherent magnetism. Electrons belonging to magnetic atoms in an antiferromagnet also have spin, although these spins alternate, with electrons orbiting neighboring atoms aligning their spins antiparalle...

Physicists Catch Light in 'Imaginary Time' in Scientific First

For the first time, researchers have seen how light behaves during a mysterious phenomenon called 'imaginary time '. When you shine light through almost any transparent material, the gridlock of electromagnetic fields that make up the atomic alleys and side streets will add a significant amount of time to each photon's commute. This delay can tell physicists a lot about how light scatters, revealing details about the matrix of material the photons must navigate. Yet until now, one trick up the theorist's sleeve for measuring light's journey invoking imaginary time has not been fully understood in practical terms. An experiment conducted by University of Maryland physicists Isabella Giovannelli and Steven Anlage has now revealed precisely what pulses of microwave radiation (a type of light that exists outside the visible spectrum) do while experiencing imaginary time inside a roundabout of cables. Their work also demonstrates how imaginary numbers can describe a ver...
