<div><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family:
Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;">The Sun-Earth interaction leads to
a variety of asymmetric effects in geospace. In the ionosphere
these appear, for example, as dawn-dusk asymmetries and
inter-hemispheric asymmetries and in the magnetosphere they can
be observed, for example, as warping of the plasma sheet,
asymmetric loading of flux in the lobes, and in ion outflow.
</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:
11pt;"></span><br>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:
11pt;">Known causes of asymmetries include the orientation of
the interplanetary magnetic field, the tilt angle of the Earth,
solar irradiation, variations in magnetic field strength, and
disparities in neutral wind forcing from below. As the state of
geospace is a result of all these various factors, the most
common state of geospace is indeed asymmetric.</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><span style="font-family:
Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><span style="font-family:
Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">This section calls
for a papers exploring geospace in order to make progress in our
understanding of the physical processes responsible for creating
the asymmetric geospace. We welcome studies using observations,
statistical techniques, as well as MHD modeling, simulations and
theoretical considerations.</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><span style="font-family:
Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Studies of
dynamics and asymmetries from other planets are also welcome.</span></div>
