亚暴相关的等离子体片变薄和变厚过程，在XSM <$-18 RE被广泛研究，在大多数亚暴中，在超过XSM <$-10到-15 RE的磁尾的所有距离上都发生。这些过程涉及到等离子体快速流出和流入磁尾，并暗示着磁中性线的形成，首先在地球附近，然后在亚暴期间远离磁尾。这些过程的证据进行了讨论。
The substorm-related thinning and thickening of the plasma sheet, processes that have been extensively studied at XSM≈ −18 RE, occur at all distances in the magnetotail beyond XSM ≈ −10 to −15 RE in most substorms. These processes involve rapid flow of plasma out of and into the magnetotail and suggest the formation of magnetic neutral lines, first near the earth and then far out in the tail during a substorm. Evidence for these processes is discussed.
