Isolated magnetic field structures in the Saturn magnetosphere

Sammanfattning: This report’s primary focus is to use the data gathered by the Cassini satellite and analyzeits magnetic field data around Saturn. By looking for isolated changes in magneticfield values locations of potential plasmoids can be determined and examined. Theseso called plasmoids are pockets of higher density plasma ,associated with an increaseor decrease of the magnetic field strength, inside the magnetosheath, which may be importantfor the interaction between the solar wind plasma and the magnetosphere. Thestudy has been made over 7 years, from the beginning of 2010 to the end of 2016. Duringthis period a number of magnetic field structures have been found and documentedin this report, along with analyzing some of their properties such as their width andmagnetic field strength.
