Simultaneous Observation of Magnetopause Expansion Under Radial IMF and Indention by HSJ [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 To analyze the influence of high‐speed jets (HSJs) on the position of the magnetopause during long‐term radial interplanetary magnetic fields (IMFs), we report three events of magnetopause expansions and indentions by HSJs observed by Time History of ...

The Relationship between Solar Wind Charge Exchange Soft X-ray Emission and the Tangent Direction of Magnetopause in an XMM–Newton Event [PDF]
Magnetochemistry, 2023 With the advent of soft X-ray imaging enabling global magnetopause detection, it is critical to use reconstruction techniques to derive the 3-dimensional magnetopause location from 2-dimensional X-ray images.

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.

Overshoot Structure Near the Earth’s Subsolar Magnetopause Generated by Magnetopause Motions
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 For magnetopause crossing events, the observed magnetospheric magnetic fields in the vicinity of the subsolar magnetopause frequently present an overshoot structure; that is, in small vicinity of the magnetopause, the closer to the magnetopause, the ...

Relation between magnetopause position and reconnection rate under quasi-steady solar wind dynamic pressure [PDF]
Earth, Planets and SpaceThe lunar environment heliospheric X-ray imager (LEXI) and solar wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere link explorer (SMILE) will observe the magnetopause motion in soft X-rays to understand dayside reconnection modes as a function of solar wind conditions after

Magnetopause as conformal mapping [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2023 An axi-symmetric two-dimensional magnetopause model is constructed by making use of the conformal mapping in the complex plane. The model is an analytic continuation of the power-law damped (or asymptotically elongated) parabolic shape. The complex-plane

Extremely Distant Magnetopause Locations Caused by Magnetosheath Jets
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Magnetopause position is controlled mainly by the solar wind dynamic pressure and north‐south interplanetary magnetic field component and these quantities are included in different empirical magnetopause models.

Magnetopause Waves Controlling the Dynamics of Earth’s Magnetosphere [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015 Earth’s magnetopause separating the fast and often turbulent magnetosheath and the relatively stagnant magnetosphere provides various forms of free energy that generate low-frequency surface waves.

Cluster observation of continuous reconnection at dayside magnetopause in the vicinity of cusp [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 In this paper, we present a case study of continuous reconnection at the dayside magnetopause observed by the Cluster spacecraft. On 1 April 2003, the four Cluster spacecraft experienced multiple encounters with the Earth's dayside magnetopause under ...
