Fig. 5
Polar view in the rotating frame. Shown are the trajectory of the foot points of selected field lines in the ionosphere (one hemisphere only), as well as the trajectory of the field lines’ intersection points with the equatorial plane. Blue and red correspond to mutually conjugate lines. The grey tubes represent the asymptotic position of all field lines.
