Statistics of bow shock nonuniformity

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1973
The statistical occurrence of pulsation or oblique structure about the earth's generally nonuniform bow shock is estimated at selected points by combining a three-dimensional distribution of interplanetary field directions obtained for a six-day solar wind sector with an index of local pulsation geometry. The result, obtained with a pulsation index of

Bow Shock Formation in a Complex Plasma

Physical Review Letters, 2012
A bow shock is observed in a two-dimensional supersonic flow of charged microparticles in a complex plasma. A thin conducting needle is used to make a potential barrier as an obstacle for the particle flow in the complex plasma. The flow is generated and the flow velocity is controlled by changing a tilt angle of the device under the gravitational ...

Bow shock and its interaction with interplanetary shocks

Radio Science, 1973
Harbingers of significant magnetospheric motions consist of the interactions of interplanetary discontinuities with the standing bow shock. The most common discontinuity is the tangential discontinuity. Less frequent in occurrence, but of major significance to subsequent magnetospheric dynamics, is the flare‐generated interplanetary shock wave and its ...

Intermediate Shocks in 3D MHD Bow Shock Flows

2001
Numerical simulations are presented of stationary magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) bow shock flows around perfectly conducting rigid spheres. When the upstream magnetic field is strong, several consecutive interacting shock fronts of different MHD shock type are needed to channel the flow around the obstacle.
