The "ring of fire" seen by satellite cameras around the polar caps (picture below) is probably created by electrons leaking from the tail's plasma sheet, whose magnetic field lines form a somewhat imperfect trap. ... One possible explanation involves the close association between auroral arcs and electric currents which flow along field lines between the ionosphere and distant space ( Birkeland currents ). ... That produces an extra resistance to the flow of current. ...

... As of October 1, 2009, the global rate for the STIS NUV-MAMA dark current has still been occasionally reaching values as high as 13500 counts/s. This high dark current will force use of a signficantly smaller buffer time than would be otherwise needed, and in many cases may push the count rate high enough to make time-tag observations impractical. ... However, we instead found for the NUV MAMA detector an initial global dark rate of between 9000 and 18000 counts/s (a mean of 0.013 counts/s/pixel). ...

Solar Flare Origin - critical analysis" Lev Pusti'lnik We analyze current approach to solar flare origin in 3 aspects: a. Pre-flare equilibrium state of current-magnetic structure above active region and its evolution to flare state, b. Possible reasons of stability loss with transition of system in flare state c. Flare energy release in turbulent current sheet and particle acceleration in this system. ...
