Early difficulty of the traditional approach
...A further difficulty is that the flow is probably turbulent, particulary in the "wake" of the earth, and both Pioneer I and Explorer I observations show clear indications of some hydromagnetic form of turbulence...

Motivation:Magnetosphere as a turbulent wake
Even for laminar solar wind, the magnetospheric tail can be considered as a turbulent wake behind an obstacle, considering the very high values of Reynolds number (> 1010 [Borovsky and Funsten, 2003]).

The three diagonal eddy-diffusion coefficients using all THEMIS satellites were determined simultaneously from 5 till 30RE by Pinto et al. [2011]. Theory predictions obtain the additional support. Simultaneous measurements of the plasma parameters at different distances in the plasma sheet show that the diagonal components of the eddy diffusion tensor increase in the tailward direction.

Instrumentation and Data AnalysisWe used the ESA data of five THEMIS probes inside the plasma sheet. The criteria of BBFevent selection was similar to [Angelopoulos et al.(1995)]: the absolute value of the bulk velocityexceeds 100 km/s, during which the velocity exceeds 400 km/s for at least one sample period.Plasma sheet selection: XGSM < −5 Re, ZGSM < 6 Re, p > 0.01 nPa, > 0.5.QUIET: AL −100 nT, |s| 1/2 nT/min for 40 min before and after the middle of the interval.EXPANSION: AL < −100 nT s −1/2 nT/min for 5 min with respect to the middle point of theinterval, and s < 0 for 20 min with respect to the middle point of the interval.RECOVERY: AL < −100 nT and the value of the slope of the AL index was s 1/2 nT/min for 5min with respect to the middle point of the interval, and s > 0 for 20 min with respect to the middlepoint of the interval.

Conclusions
1) Plasma sheet is constantly turbulent, even under quiet geomagnetic conditions
2) The level of the turbulence depends on the geomagnetic conditions and location
3) Turbulent plasma sheet is stable due to a balance between turbulent expansion and compression by regular dawn-dusk electric field
4) BBFs appear when we need to fill urgently some parts of the magnetosphere
