Short summary
Short summary
Remote sensing of the polar aurora and ionospheric convection is used to characterize the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth magnetosphere during steady magnetospheric convection (SMC) intervals and compare them with other previously studied geomagnetic conditions. It is found that the Earth magnetosphere may exhibit four different coupling modes ordered by increasing open magnetic flux and magnetic reconnection rate: quiet times, SMC, substorm and sawtooth events.

Short summary
We compare the reported properties of oscillations in Saturn's outer plasma environment near the ~10.6 hour planetary rotation period, as observed in magnetic field and radio emission data obtained by the Cassini spacecraft. We highlight similarities and differences, and suggest possible reasons for the latter.
