Abstract
These authors make two main points: (i) That, as far as they could determine, 27 out of an IGY group of 35 storms without sudden commencements exhibited growth of a ring current well before the development of any significant polar substorms or the arrival of enhanced solar plasma flux. They support their case with four examples. (ii) That the ionized component of the solar wind does not carry enough energy to energize the ring current. This is an astounding conclusion and should not pass without scrutiny.
