Abstract
A completely different paradigm in magnetospheric research will begin with the launch of NASA's Imager for Magnetopause-to-Aurora Global Exploration (IMAGE) in January 2000. All the instruments on IMAGE will provide global-scale measurements of various plasma regimes in the Earth's magnetosphere. The objective of the IMAGE mission is to determine the global response of the magnetosphere to changing solar wind conditions. IMAGE will address this broad objective in unique ways by using neutral atom imaging (NAI), far ultraviolet imaging (FUV), extreme ultraviolet imaging (EUV), and radio plasma imaging (RPI). The IMAGE theory and modeling team has accomplished an extensive number of simulations in order to model the response of the IMAGE instruments.
