STEREO interplanetary shocks and foreshocks

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2013
We use STEREO data to study shocks driven by stream interactions and the waves associated with them. During the years of the extended solar minimum 2007-2010, stream interaction shocks have Mach numbers between 1.1-3.8 and θBn ∼20-86°. We find a variety of waves, including whistlers and low frequency fluctuations.

Observations of interplanetary shocks: Recent progress

Space Science Reviews, 1983
Interplanetary shock observations since the prior Solar Terrestrial Physics Symposium in 1978 are reviewed. Since the interval coincides with the recent solar maximum, emphasis is placed on shocks associated with transient solar phenomena, including coronal transients and eruptive prominences as well as flares.

Ionospheric Response to the Interplanetary Shock

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
The Cluster spacecraft and ground-based Digisonde network observed on November 7, 2004 a strong interplanetary shock interaction with Earth's magnetosphere which initiated a strong magnetic storm with Dst = −373 nT. When the interplanetary shock encountered the Earth system, the Cluster fleet was traveling in the inner magnetosphere region (L shell = 4.

Bow shock and its interaction with interplanetary shocks

Radio Science, 1973
Harbingers of significant magnetospheric motions consist of the interactions of interplanetary discontinuities with the standing bow shock. The most common discontinuity is the tangential discontinuity. Less frequent in occurrence, but of major significance to subsequent magnetospheric dynamics, is the flare‐generated interplanetary shock wave and its ...

Interaction of Interplanetary Shocks with the Moon

2020
<p>In this presentation, we use data from THEMIS-ARTEMIS spacecraft and electromagnetic hybrid (kinetic ions, fluid electrons) simulations to describe the nature of the interaction between interplanetary shocks and the Moon.

Voyager Observations of Interplanetary Shocks

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
Data from Voyager 2 are used to compile a shock catalogue covering the 27 years of Voyager 2 solar wind data through the end of 2004. This catalogue is used to investigate the characteristics of shocks as a function of distance out to 75 AU. The shock occurrence frequency decreases with distance.

Interplanetary Slow Shocks

1991
Ever since the identification of the first interplanetary shock wave from the Mariner 2 plasma and magnetic field measurements [7.38], shock research has received great attention in solar system plasma physics, and this has resulted in an outstanding collaboration between laboratory and space experimentalists, theorists, and specialists in numerical ...

Evolution of interplanetary slow shocks

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1988
The possible existence of traveling forward slow shocks, their global geometry and their transition to forward fast shocks have been discussed in a recent paper. The decrease in the Alfven speed at increasing heliocentric distance causes the evolution of a forward slow shock into a forward fast shock.

Waves in Interplanetary Shocks: A Wind/WAVES Study

Physical Review Letters, 2007
We describe results from the first statistical study of waveform capture data during 67 interplanetary (IP) shocks with Mach numbers ranging from approximately 1-6. Most of the waveform captures and nearly 100% of the large amplitude waves were in the ramp region.
