Research study of space plasma boundary processes [PDF]

Representation of the Earth's bow shock and magnetopause and their geometrically determined macrostructure was investigated. Computer graphic depictions of the global distributions of bow shock structures and elementary animation of the dynamics of those

Data analysis for the Pioneer-Venus electric field detector [PDF]

Research on plasma waves observed in the ion foreshock at Venus and on the impulsive bursts observed in the nightside ionosphere was performed. Some results from the ion foreshock, wave polarization, and the dependence on magnetic field orientation ...

The Role of Gyrating Ions in Reformation of a Quasi-parallel Supercritical Shock

The Astrophysical Journal
Collisionless shocks in space and astrophysical plasmas mediate energy exchange between charged particles and fields in two or more plasma flows. In this study we analyze the evolution of ion distributions around a reformation cycle of a quasi-parallel ...

Ultra-Low Frequency Waves of Foreshock Origin Upstream and Inside of the Magnetospheres of Earth, Mercury, and Saturn Related to Solar Wind–Magnetosphere Coupling

Universe
This review examines ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves across different planetary environments, focusing on Earth, Mercury, and Saturn. Data from spacecraft missions (CHAMP, Swarm, and Oersted for Earth; MESSENGER for Mercury; and Cassini for Saturn ...

Transient upstream mesoscale structures: drivers of solar-quiet space weather

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
In recent years, it has become increasingly clear that space weather disturbances can be triggered by transient upstream mesoscale structures (TUMS), independently of the occurrence of large-scale solar wind (SW) structures, such as interplanetary ...

The electron beam instability revisited: Growth above and below f sub p [PDF]

The growth of electrostatic waves near the plasma frequency (fp) due to an unstable electron beam is investigated by solving the unmagnetized electrostatic dispersion equation numerically.

Field‐Aligned Currents Induced by Magnetopause Motions Under Pressure Perturbations

Geophysical Research Letters
In this work, we identified 65 auroral arcs that stretched out from the equatorward boundary of auroral oval with azimuthal extensions, and investigated their upstream triggering, by utilizing conjunctions between the THEMIS probes and the all‐sky ...
