Bow Shock and Upstream Phenomena at Mars [PDF]
Mars Global Surveyor is the sixth spacecraft to return measurements of the Martian bow shock. The earlier missions were Mariner 4 (1964), Mars 2 and 3 (1972), Mars 5 (1975) and Phobos 2 (1989) (see reviews by Gringauz, 1981; Slavin and Holzer, 1982; Russell, 1985; Vaisberg, 1992a,b; Zakharov, 1992).

Properties of mass-loading shocks, 2. Magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]
The one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics of shocked flows subjected to significant mass loading are considered. Recent observations at comets Giacobini-Zinner and Halley suggest that simple nonreacting MHD is an inappropriate description for active ...

HH 34: The Bow Shock of a Jet [PDF]
Deep CCD imaging of HH 34 in H∝ shows that the HH-object has a bow shock-like structure, of which the wings can be traced over about 1 arcmin ( pc). A knotty jet is pointing towards the apex of the bow shock structure. Long-slit spectroscopy reveals that 1) the jet has approximately a constant radial velocity and electron density. 2).

MESSENGER Observations of Standing Whistler Waves Upstream of Mercury's Bow Shock
This paper reports on the standing whistler waves upstream of Mercury's quasi‐perpendicular bow shock. Using MESSENGER's magnetometer data, 36 wave events were identified during interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs).

Bow shock motions observed with CLUSTER [PDF]
The Cluster mission allows the determination not only of the bow shock crossing position but also, with a simple timing method and a reasonable confidence, the shock normal and the velocity along this normal. We apply this technique to a series of eleven consecutive bow shock crossings which occurred during a time interval of approximatively two and a ...

HD 189733 b: bow shock or no shock? [PDF]
Context. Hot Jupiters are surrounded by extended atmospheres of neutral hydrogen. Observations have provided evidence for in-transit hydrogen Hα absorption as well as variable pre-transit absorption signals. These have been interpreted in terms of a bow shock or an accretion stream that transits the host star before the planet. Aims.

Reflection of the strahl within the foot of the Earth's bow shock [PDF]
The reflection of a fraction of the solar wind at the bow shock to some extent defines the physical properties of what is known as the foreshock, the region where the interplanetary magnetic field has a direct connection to the bow shock.

A model of the magnetosheath magnetic field during magnetic clouds [PDF]
Magnetic clouds (MCs) are huge interplanetary structures which originate from the Sun and have a paramount importance in driving magnetospheric storms. Before reaching the magnetosphere, MCs interact with the Earth's bow shock.
