Observations of a new foreshock region upstream of a foreshock bubble's shock [PDF]
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.

Helium in the Earth's foreshock: a global Vlasiator survey [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2020 The foreshock is a region of space upstream of the Earth's bow shock extending along the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). It is permeated by shock-reflected ions and electrons, low-frequency waves, and various plasma transients.

On the edge of the foreshock: model-data comparisons [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2008 We present the results of a global hybrid code simulation for the solar wind-interaction with the Earth's magnetosphere during an interval of steady radial IMF.

The statistics of foreshock cavities: results of a Cluster survey [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2008 We use Cluster magnetic field, thermal ion, and energetic particle observations upstream of the Earth's bow shock to investigate the occurrence patterns of foreshock cavities. Such cavities are thought to form when bundles of magnetic field connect to

Statistical study of foreshock cavitons [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2013 In this work we perform a statistical analysis of 92 foreshock cavitons observed with the Cluster spacecraft 1 during the period 2001–2006. We analyze time intervals during which the spacecraft was located in the Earth's foreshock with durations ...

Ion Acceleration Inside Foreshock Transients [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2018 AbstractRecent observations upstream of Earth's bow shock have revealed that foreshock transients can not only accelerate solar wind ions by reflection at their upstream boundaries but may also accelerate ions inside them. Evidence for the latter comes from comparisons of ion spectra inside and outside the cores, and from evidence of leakage of ...

Oxygen foreshock of Mars [PDF]
Planetary and Space Science, 2015 AbstractMars Express (MEX) has operated for more than 10 years in the environment of Mars, providing solar wind ion observations from the Analyzer of Space Plasmas and Energetic Atoms experiment's Ion Mass Analyser (IMA). On 21 September 2008, MEX/IMA detected foreshock-like discrete distributions of oxygen ions at around 1keV in the solar wind ...

Impact of Foreshock Transients on the Flank Magnetopause and Magnetosphere and the Ionosphere
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 Mesoscale (on the scales of a few minutes and a few RE) magnetosheath and magnetopause perturbations driven by foreshock transients have been observed in the flank magnetotail.

3-D global hybrid simulations of magnetospheric response to foreshock processes
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 It has been suggested that ion foreshock waves originating in the solar wind upstream of the quasi-parallel (Q-||) shock can impact the planetary magnetosphere leading to standing shear Alfvén waves, i.e., the field line resonances (FLRs). In this paper,
