The θBn problem: Determination of local magnetic parameters of interplanetary shocks from in situ IMF data [PDF]
The angle θBn is the angle between the upstream magnetic field and the shock normal direction and is important for many phenomena in interplanetary physics.

Abstract Mercury's weak intrinsic magnetic field forms a small magnetosphere and thus a bow shock that decelerates the supermagnetosonic solar wind and reflects particles upstream, forming a foreshock in the quasi‐parallel region. This region is populated by backstreaming ions and electrons and associated wave activity.

Computations on the interaction of an interplanetary shock with the Earth's magnetosphere
We present the results of a one-dimensional computer simulation of the interaction between interplanetary shocks and the Earth's magnetosphere. The position of the bowshock as a function of solar wind velocity and interplanetary field direction is studied.

Rapid Magnetotail Reconfiguration and Ion‐Scale Wave Activity at Mercury
Abstract Mercury's magnetosphere is an extremely dynamic environment, where substorm‐like activity, including dipolarization fronts and particle acceleration, periodically disrupts the stability and radial extent of the closed field line region. The common narrowband ∼1 Hz waves at Mercury, near the local proton gyrofrequency are preferentially ...

Abstract This paper introduces an updated version of the University of Michigan Geospace model. The Geospace model has been used for operational forecasting at the Space Weather Modeling Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency since 2016 with regular updates. The current operational version, Geospace V2, was launched in 2021 and is driven

Cross‐Correlations of Solar Wind Parameters Using Monitoring Spacecraft
Abstract Space weather predictive modeling currently utilizes real‐time data from the spacecraft ACE and DSCOVR, with SOLAR‐1 and IMAP recently online. This study assesses whether DSCOVR solar wind plasma and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) data exhibit large‐scale discrepancies from the corresponding ACE data, and if so, whether these ...

Acceleration Of ³He Nuclei At Interplanetary Shocks
We have surveyed the 0.5-2.0 MeV nucleonˉ¹ ion composition of 56 interplanetary (IP) shocks observed with the Ultra - Low-Energy Isotope Spectrometer on board the Advanced Composition Explorer from 1997 October 1 through 2000 November 30.

We investigate the role of interplanetary (IP) shocks in solar wind turbulence using observations of Solar Orbiter, Parker Solar Probe, and Wind. Employing statistical analysis of quasi-perpendicular fast forward (FF) and fast reverse (FR) shocks, we ...

Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are typically nighttime ionospheric irregularities, and their persistence into daytime sectors remains insufficiently understood. Here, we investigate long‐lived EPB‐related plasma depletion structures over the Pacific sector during the recovery phase of the 23–25 April 2023 geomagnetic storm using Formosa ...

In the solar wind, the fluctuation of heavy ion abundance serves as a crucial physical metric. This not only mirrors the attributes of the solar wind’s originating solar region but also signifies its influence on Earth’s magnetosphere.
