Particle acceleration and plasma physics in the Earth's aurora, plasma processes in the magnetosphere and cometary/planetary plasma physics
Dr. Carlson’s unique role in space plasma physics is based on his ingenious design of highly advanced diagnostic instrumentation, on the huge success of his sounding rocket projects and the FAST satellite mission, and on the guidance he provided to the community through data interpretation and theory in unraveling the complex processes of auroral plasma physics.
His outstanding invention, in the early eighties, was the top-hat plasma analyzer. It has become the de-facto standard for plasma particle measurements on many satellite missions besides FAST, e.g. AMPTE and Cluster, due to its uniform response and extraordinary angular resolution. On FAST, it enabled the unequivocal and quantitative proof that the auroral electron and ion beams are the result of electric potential drops along the geomagnetic field lines, the discovery of the organization of the auroral physics by the global magnetospheric upward/downward current systems, and the clarification of the mechanism for the generation of the auroral kilometric radiation. On AMPTE, an instrument of that design led to the discovery of the “bursty bulk flows” in the magnetospheric tail during substorms.
2007 EGU Hannes Alfvén Medallist "for his pioneering work in developing novel diagnostic instruments and whole payloads leading to a major increase in our knowledge of the complexities of space and, in particular, auroral plasmas."
