Turbulent dynamo in the terrestrial magnetosheath [PDF]
Abstract Dynamo action refers to energy exchange processes through which magnetic fields are generated or/and amplified at the expense of kinetic energy of the plasma flows in various laboratory, space and astrophysical environments. The generation of the magnetic fields can take place over multiple spatial scales simultaneously.

Magnetosheath plasma flow model around Mercury [PDF]
The magnetosheath is defined as the plasma region between the bow shock, where the super-magnetosonic solar wind plasma is decelerated and heated, and the outer boundary of the intrinsic planetary magnetic field, the so-called magnetopause.

Magnetosheath cavities: case studies using Cluster observations [PDF]
This paper presents examples of magnetosheath cavities in Cluster spacecraft observations. The cavities are accompanied by high energy particles in the magnetosheath and characterized by depressed magnetic fields and densities.

The Earth's magnetosheath: Structures, waves and turbulence
When the solar wind encounters the blunt Earth's magnetosphere, a detached shock (i.e., the bow shock) forms at a distance about ten Earth radii from the Earth.

Magnetopause stand-off distance in dependence on the magnetosheath and solar wind parameters [PDF]
A model of the magnetosheath structure proposed in a recent paper from the authors is extended to estimate the magnetopause stand-off distance from solar wind data.

Asymmetries in the Earth's dayside magnetosheath: results from global hybrid-Vlasov simulations [PDF]
Bounded by the bow shock and the magnetopause, the magnetosheath forms the interface between solar wind and magnetospheric plasmas and regulates solar wind–magnetosphere coupling.

Plasma and Magnetic Field Turbulence in the Earth’s Magnetosheath at Ion Scales
Crossing the Earth’s bow shock is known to crucially affect solar wind plasma including changes in turbulent cascade. The present review summarizes results of more than 15 years of experimental exploration into magnetosheath turbulence.

Relaxation of the turbulent magnetosheath
ABSTRACTIn turbulence, non-linear terms drive energy transfer from large-scale eddies into small scales through the so-called energy cascade. Turbulence often relaxes toward states that minimize energy; typically these states are considered globally.

Magnetosheath-cusp interface [PDF]
Abstract. We advance the achievements of Interball-1 and other contemporary missions in exploration of the magnetosheath-cusp interface. Extensive discussion of published results is accompanied by presentation of new data from a case study and a comparison of those data within the broader context of three-year magnetopause (MP) crossings by Interball-1.

Scalar-potential mapping of the steady-state magnetosheath model [PDF]
The steady-state magnetosheath model has various applications for studying the plasma and magnetic field profile around the planetary magnetospheres.
