Since the beginning of the artificial satellite era measurements of space plasmas, energetic particles, and electromagnetic fields have provided a broad picture of the interaction of the solar wind with the magnetosphere. Yet theory still is unable to explain quantitatively, without the use of ad hoc parameterizations, how much magnetic flux interconnects the Earth with the solar wind or what the details of the magnetic- and electric-field configurations are in the vicinity of the magnetopause and in the distant magnetospheric tail.
