Overshoot Structure Near the Earth’s Subsolar Magnetopause Generated by Magnetopause Motions
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]
The 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

Ion Dynamics at the Magnetopause of Ganymede [PDF]
AbstractWe study the dynamics of the thermal O+ and H+ ions at Ganymede's magnetopause when Ganymede is inside and outside of the Jovian plasma sheet using a three‐dimensional hybrid model of plasma (kinetic ions, fluid electrons). We present the global structure of the electric fields and power density (E ⋅ J) in the magnetosphere of Ganymede and show

Spatial distribution of rolled up Kelvin-Helmholtz vortices at Earth's dayside and flank magnetopause [PDF]
The Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) can drive waves at the magnetopause. These waves can grow to form rolled-up vortices and facilitate transfer of plasma into the magnetosphere.

Simultaneous in-situ observations of the signature of dayside reconnection at the high and low latitude magnetopause [PDF]
We present magnetic field and particle data recorded by the Cluster and Geotail satellites in the vicinity of the high- and low-latitude dayside magnetopause, re- spectively, on 17 February 2003. A favourable conjunction of these spacecraft culminated in

Magnetopause Waves Controlling the Dynamics of Earth’s Magnetosphere [PDF]
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.

Extremely Distant Magnetopause Locations Caused by Magnetosheath Jets
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.

Impact of Foreshock Transients on the Flank Magnetopause and Magnetosphere and the Ionosphere
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.
