Machine Learning Applications to Kronian Magnetospheric Reconnection Classification

Abstract: <p>Signatures of magnetic reconnection in Saturn's magnetotail are identified in magnetometer observations by characteristic deviations in the northward component of the magnetic field. These magnetic deflections are caused by travelling plasma structures created by reconnection rapidly passing over the observing spacecraft. The identification of these reconnection signatures has long been performed by eye, and more recently through semi-automated methods, however these methods are often limited … Show more

“… Model of magnetic reconnection in a planetary current sheet. From this form of reconnection, various structures are created: dipolarizations, plasmoids and traveling compression regions which are detectable by in‐situ spacecraft through their unique magnetic deflections (adapted from Garton et al., 2021). These figures are described in a Kronocentric Solar Magnetospheric coordinate system.…”

“…Neural network models have been shown to perform admirably at classification, regression and forecasting tasks in the fields of space plasma physics and space weather (e.g., Bakrania et al., 2020; Bloch et al., 2021; Bortnik et al., 2016; Clausen & Nickisch, 2018; Garton et al., 2021; James et al., 2020; Lethy et al., 2018; McGranaghan et al., 2020; Wintoft et al., 2017; Zhelavskaya et al., 2021). For space weather forecasting in particular, models can be structured to have a “memory” of the preceding solar wind conditions (Bhaskar & Vichare, 2019; Kugblenu et al., 1999).…”

“…We note that the input for this model is not a matrix of shape (normalΔT,8), but instead is a flattened input of shape (normalΔT*8), similar to the approach of Garton et al. (2021).…”
