对来自 ISEE 3 的等离子体电子数据、高能粒子数据和磁场数据进行了等离子体团的详细描述。等离子体团长 75-150 R/sub E/，以 500-1000 公里/秒的速度向后移动，在几个地面站记录到极光电射流非常强的增强后 27 分钟，出现在 ISEE 3 上，约 220 R/sub E/ 下尾。等离子团被一个“分离层”覆盖，其中高能粒子（可能起源于近地重新连接区域）沿着场线自由地向尾部流动，速度较慢的粒子在层内更深处遇到。等离子体团包含均匀高温的等离子体，其边界<或大约。 =1 R/sub E/厚。
A detailed description of a plasmoid is presented on plasma electron data, energetic particle data, and magnetic field data from ISEE 3. The plasmoid, 75-150 R/sub E/ long, traveling tailward at 500-1000 km/sec, appeared at ISEE 3, approx.220 R/sub E/ down-tail, 27 minutes after a very strong intensification of the auroral electrojet was recorded at several ground stations. The plasmoid was overlaid by a ''separatrix layer'' within which energetic particles, probably originating at a near-earth reconnection region, streamed freely tailward along the field lines, the slower particles being encountered deeper within the layer. The plasmoid contained plasma of uniformly high temperature and its boundary was < or approx. =1 R/sub E/ thick.
