Alfven waves were found to propagate toward the earth in the nightside magnetosphere. They are considered to be associated with the auroral activity at the ionospheric altitudes. We have investigated the electric and magnetic field variations measured by Geotail in the mid-tail region, 10-30 Re. We found large-amplitude electric field fluctuations and the corresponding magnetic field fluctuations having the components in the direction perpendicular to the ambient magnetic field. These fluctuations were identified as Alfven waves from the ratio between the amplitudes of electric and magnetic field. These large-amplitude Alfven waves often propagate in the direction coincides with the plasma flow, and earthward at the same time. We will further select events in which the fluctuations are identified as waves definitely. We will report the statistical result about the correspondence with the plasma properties and estimation of the energy flux carried by the Alfven waves.

阿尔芬波被发现在磁层的背侧向地球传播。它们被认为与电离层高度的极光活动有关。我们研究了Geotail在中尾区（10-30 Re）测量的电场和磁场变化。我们发现大振幅的电场波动和相应的磁场波动具有垂直于环境磁场的方向上的分量。根据电场和磁场振幅的比值，这些波动被确定为阿尔芬波。这些大振幅的阿尔芬波通常沿着与等离子体流动方向一致的方向传播，同时也向地球方向传播。我们将进一步选择波动被确定为波的事件。我们将报告与等离子体性质对应的统计结果和阿尔芬波携带的能流的估计。
