  3. Outline * Focus on the initial 6 minutes of the Halloween magnetic storm starting on 29 October 2003 (sudden commencement at 0611 UT). * Observed three onsets of strong ionospheric westward electrojet (2000~4000 nT) in the inner magnetosphere region. (1) Clear substorm onset in the evening-midnight sector staring at 0612 UT, expanding poleward. (2) Substorm-like westward electrojet in the morning sector starting at 0612~0613 UT (rather that cusp-related activity), expanding west. (3) The strongest activity (~4000 nT) in post-midnight sector started where and when the above two expanding activities met each other. * Gather as much data as possible to demonstrate the development.

  16. Summary : three onsets During initial 6 minutes of the magnetic storm on 29 October 2003, we observed three onsets of strong ionospheric westward electrojet (2000~4000 nT) in the inner magnetosphere region. (0a) 06:11 UT: The shock swept the magnetosphere 0.3 Re/sec ≈ upstream velocity. (0b) 06:11:21 UT: Global SC at both dayside mid-latitude & morning high-latitude. (1) 06:12 UT (06:12:00@GOES): Onset of ordinary strong substorm (>1000 nT / 2 min)in the evening-midnight sector with a poleward expanding westward electrojet. * Most likely directly triggered by the shock arrival. * Maintained by direct energy pumping from the SW.

  17. Summary (part 2) (2) 06:12~06:13 UT: Onset of strong westward electrojet + auroral emissionin the morning auroral zone (around 65 MLat), eastward electrojet at poleward stations (> 70 Mlat). Activity expand steadily westward toward the night without vortex signature. * Trend (= westward electrojet) + oscillation ÞNot the cusp or KH-related phenomena. * Auroral & electrojet correspond to Region 2 FAC (J//) Þ Similar to a local substorm * Powered by SW dynamo via Region 1 J// at conv. reversal.

  18. Summary (part 3) (3) 06:17 UT (06:16:40@GOES): A localized sharp development (3000 nT / 2 min ∆B)only at 01 LT (IQA station) together with spiky increase of B by GOES-12 at 01 LT. The onset is when and where two previous activities met at high-latitude midnight. * High and sharp activity + localized + unusual spike at GOES ÞDifficult to understand. One possible scenario (speculation): a part of the dayside J// system is detached and swept tailward, briefly passing very close to the substorm current system, and that this passage triggered the third activity?
