Universe, 2022 The Earth’s magnetosphere is permanently influenced by the solar wind. When supersonic and superalfvenic plasma flow interacts with the magnetosphere, the magnetosheath region is formed, which is filled with shocked turbulent plasma.

Characteristics of > 290 keV magnetosheath ions [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 1999 We performed a statistical analysis of 290-500 keV ion data obtained by IMP-8 during the years 1982-1988 within the earth's magnetosheath and analysed in detail some time periods withdistinct ion bursts.

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.

Nature of Electrostatic Fluctuations in the Terrestrial Magnetosheath [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2021 Abstract The high cadence plasma, electric, and magnetic field measurements by the Magnetospheric MultiScale spacecraft allow us to explore the near-Earth space plasma with an unprecedented time and spatial resolution, resolving electron-scale structures that naturally emerge from plasma complex dynamics.

Magnetosheath jet properties and evolution as determined by a global hybrid-Vlasov simulation [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2018 We use a global hybrid-Vlasov simulation for the magnetosphere, Vlasiator, to investigate magnetosheath high-speed jets. Unlike many other hybrid-kinetic simulations, Vlasiator includes an unscaled geomagnetic dipole, indicating that the simulation ...

Magnetosheath jet evolution as a function of lifetime: global hybrid-Vlasov simulations compared to MMS observations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2021 Magnetosheath jets are regions of high dynamic pressure, which can traverse from the bow shock towards the magnetopause. Recent modelling efforts, limited to a single jet and a single set of upstream conditions, have provided the first estimations about ...

Interball-1 observations of flux transfer events [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2012 We present the results of a survey of 807 FTEs observed by Interball-1 on the mid- and high-latitude dayside and flank magnetopause. Dayside magnetosheath events show a strong tendency to occur for southward magnetosheath magnetic fields suggesting ...

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Introduction: During recent years magnetosheath plasma structures called “jets” are identified in spacecraft data as localized regions in the magnetosheath where the dynamic pressure is enhanced compared to the background.

Solar wind reconstruction from magnetosheath data using an adjoint approach [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2015 We present a new method to reconstruct solar wind conditions from spacecraft data taken during magnetosheath passages, which can be used to support, e.g., magnetospheric models.

A model of the magnetosheath magnetic field during magnetic clouds [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2014 Magnetic clouds (MCs) are huge interplanetary structures which originate from the Sun and have a paramount importance in driving magnetospheric storms. Before reaching the magnetosphere, MCs interact with the Earth's bow shock.
