The hydrodynamic equations in a cylindrical geometry then gives
Two limit cases: mm ;0 Toroidal and poloidal mode resp.In general (finite m) the two modes are coupled

Summary of observations
•On 17 August 2002 a FLR event is observed in the dayside magnetosphere.
•The oscillations occur at one stable frequency, 4.2 mHzin the satellite frame.
•Radial polarisation of the magnetic field indicates thepoloidal mode.
