The Evolution of Interplanetary Shocks Propagating into the Very Local Interstellar Medium
Voyager 1 has made in situ measurements of the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) since August 2012 and its magnetometer and plasma wave instrument have detected several VLISM shock waves.

Features of formation of small-scale wave disturbances during a sudden magnetospheric compression
Quasi-periodic changes of the geomagnetic field and plasma parameters in the range of Pc 5 pulsations, which occurred immediately after the interaction of interplanetary shock (IPS) with Earth’s magnetosphere in the event of April 24, 2009 at 00:53 UT ...

Impact of Inner Heliospheric Boundary Conditions on Solar Wind Predictions at Earth
Predictions of the physical parameters of the solar wind at Earth are at the core of operational space weather forecasts. Such predictions typically use line‐of‐sight observations of the photospheric magnetic field to drive a heliospheric model.

Investigating Alfvénic Turbulence in Fast and Slow Solar Wind Streams
Solar wind turbulence dominated by large-amplitude Alfvénic fluctuations, mainly propagating away from the Sun, is ubiquitous in high-speed solar wind streams. Recent observations performed in the inner heliosphere (from 1 AU down to tens of solar radii)

We present the first comparison of Jupiter's auroral morphology with an extended, continuous, and complete set of near‐Jupiter interplanetary data, revealing the response of Jupiter's auroras to the interplanetary conditions.

MEASURING THE INTERPLANETARY MEDIUM WITH A SOLAR SAIL [PDF]
NASA has been considering a solar sail that would accelerate a craft to a high velocity (~14 AU/yr) by the time it reached 5 AU. Then the sail would be dropped and the craft would coast alone to deep space. We propose that the sail be retained longer. Then the density of the interplanetary medium could be determined by measuring the drag force on the ...

Interplanetary Signatures during the 1972 Early August Solar Storms
In 1972, early August, a series of interplanetary shocks were observed in the heliosphere from 0.8 to 2.2 au. These shocks were attributed to a series of brilliant flares and plasma clouds since at that time coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and their ...

The Interplanetary Medium is Thriving [PDF]
Abstract Usually in presenting a summary report of a meeting one tries to pick out the highlights. In the present instance I am tempted to say that the meeting was its own highlight because there were so many fine presentations covering such a wide range of interrelated topics. The organizers are clearly to be congratulated on their timing.

A Overview of Interplanetary Scintillation Method for Studying Solar Wind Physics [PDF]
Interplanetary scintillation is the fluctuation produced in the apparent brightness of a radio source, due to refractive effects in the turbulent solar wind flowing from the sun.

Metargon and the Interplanetary Medium [PDF]
THE detection of metargon, and the statement that its spectrum, at all events, closely agrees with the Swan-spectrum, seems to possess a very great interest for the physics of our solar system. It gives a new and expected support to the assumption of an interplanetary atmosphere, which, as I shortly hope to show, will enable us to indicate the solution
