The asymmetry of the equatorial ring‐current and its progressive change during magnetic storms are studied by introducing the new DR indices, which contain the following four parameters: 1, intensity of symmetric ring‐current, 2, intensity of partial ring‐current, 3, local time of the center of the partial ring‐current, and 4, longitudinal width of the partial ring‐current.
