Bow shock oscillations of Mars under weakly disturbed solar wind conditions [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsBow shock, where the solar wind first encounters the Martian environment, reflects the complex interplay between the solar wind and Martian upper atmosphere and crustal fields.

Variability of Bow Shock Location at Mars [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1999 Bow shock formation, in case the supersonic solar wind flow is hindered by the atmosphere of Mars, is investigated. The atoms newly ionized from the extensive neutral atmosphere of Mars are loaded to the solar wind.

Magnetic field fluctuations across the Earth’s bow shock [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2001 We present a statistical analysis of 132 dayside (LT 0700-1700) bow shock crossings of the AMPTE/IRM spacecraft. We perform a superposed epoch analysis of low frequency, magnetic power spectra some minutes up-stream and downstream of the bow shock ...

Properties and models of the Martian bow shock
地球与行星物理论评, 2021 Mars does not have a global magnetic field of the internal origin, thus, the solar wind plasma can interact directly with the upper atmosphere and the ionosphere and be shocked with the mass-loading and magnetic pileup processes.

The spectral scalings of magnetic fluctuations upstream and downstream of the Venusian bow shock
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 We statistically investigate the spectral scalings of magnetic fluctuations at the upstream and downstream regions near the Venusian bow shock and perform a differentiation by shock geometry.

THE RETURN OF THE BOW SHOCK [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 Recently it has been discussed whether a bow shock ahead of the heliospheric stagnation region does exist or not. This discussion was triggered by measurements indicating that the Alfvén speed and that of fast magnetosonic waves are higher than the flow speed of the local interstellar medium (LISM) relative to the heliosphere and resulted in the ...

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 On the bow shock in front of Earth’s magnetosphere flows a current due to the curl of the interplanetary magnetic field across the shock. The closure of this current remains uncertain; it is unknown whether the bow shock current closes with the Chapman ...
