Properties of mass-loading shocks: 1. Hydrodynamic considerations

, 1991
The one-dimensional hydrodynamics of flows subjected to mass loading are considered anew, with particular emphasis placed on determining the properties of mass-loading shocks. This work has been motivated by recent observations of the outbound Halley bow

Properties of mass-loading shocks, 2. Magnetohydrodynamics

, 1992
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 ...

Evidence for transient, local ion foreshocks caused by dayside magnetopause reconnection [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2016
We present a scenario resulting in time-dependent behaviour of the bow shock and transient, local ion reflection under unchanging solar wind conditions.

Revisiting cometary bow shock positions

, 2013
The Rosetta spacecraft will arrive at comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko in 2014 and will escort the comet along its journey around the Sun. The predicted outgassing rate of the comet and the solar wind properties close to its perihelion at 1.24 AU lead to ...

Interplanetary shock transmitted into the Earth's magnetosheath: Cluster and Double Star observations [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2010
On day 7 May 2005, the plasma instruments on board Double Star TC1 and Cluster SC3 spacecraft register inside the magnetosheath, at 19:15:12 and 19:16:20 UT, respectively, a strong pressure pulse due to the impact of an interplanetary shock wave (IS ...

Observations of a new foreshock region upstream of a foreshock bubble's shock

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
Earth's foreshock is a region within the solar wind upstream of Earth's bow shock filled with backstreaming solar wind particles reflected at the shock.

Interaction of isentropic compression waves with a bow shock

, 2013
The interaction of isentropic compression waves with a bow shock is numerically investigated. The relative intersection region size is introduced to characterize the convergence degree of isentropic compression waves.
