摘要
Recent observations and analyses seem to suggest that certain dynamical features of the Earth's magnetosphere could resemble the evolution of a complex system near a forced and/or self-organized criticality (FSOC). Here, we review concepts dealing with the phenomenology of criticality and disorder systems in connection with magnetospheric processes. In more detail, we discuss the importance of intermittency, turbulence and local topological disorder in the geomagnetic tail regions, that form a new paradigm for the understanding of the magnetotail dynamics.
