“…In the cases in the magnetosphere, the minimum‐ B along B corresponds to the magnetic equator. Simulation studies (e.g., Hikishima et al, 2009; Katoh & Omura, 2007, 2011, 2013; Ke et al, 2017; Kuzichev et al, 2019; Lu et al, 2019) and observations of Poynting flux direction by various spacecraft around the magnetic equator (e.g., Agapitov et al, 2013; Le Contel et al, 2009; LeDocq et al, 1998; Li et al, 2013; Nagano et al, 1996; Parrot et al, 2003; Santolík et al, 2003; Santolík et al, 2005; Taubenschuss et al, 2016; Teng et al, 2018) indicate that wave generation occurs around the magnetic equator and the waves are radiated away from the equator in the parallel and antiparallel directions with respect to B . Thus, reversals of the field‐aligned component of Poynting fluxes are regarded as the sign of the passage of a wave source region.…”
