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.

On the Magnetic Field Configuration of the Magnetosheath
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2013 The magnetosheath is the region where the shocked solar wind interacts directly with the magnetosphere. Here we examine the magnetic field throughout the equatorial magnetosheath as a function of the solar wind IMF direction using observational data sets

Jets in Planetary Magnetosheath
, 2023 Abstract The study of jets in the Earth's magnetosheath has been a subject of extensive investigation for over a decade due to their profound impact on the geomagnetic environment and their close connection with shock dynamics. While the variability of the solar wind and its interaction with Earth's magnetosphere provide valuable insights into ...

First identification of mirror mode waves in Venus' magnetosheath?
Geophysical Research Letters, 2008 In this paper first time observations of mirror mode like structures in Venus' magnetosheath are presented. Using magnetometer data from the Venus Express spacecraft it is shown that in two regions in the Venusian magnetosheath strong compressional waves

Turbulence in the near-Venusian space: Venus Express observations
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020 With Venus Express magnetic field measurements at 32 Hz from 2006 to 2012, we investigate statistically the magnetic fluctuations in the near-Venusian space.

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.

Energetic Electron Pitch-angle Distributions in the Martian Space Environment: Pancake
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We perform a statistical investigation of the occurrence rates of energetic electron (100–500 eV) pancake pitch-angle distributions (PADs) in the Martian space environment by utilizing 6 yr of MAVEN data. In the Martian ionosphere, we find the following:

Geoeffectiveness of Magnetosheath Jets
, 2020 <p>The study on high speed plasma flows in the Earth&#8217;s magnetosheath, or commonly known as jets, has been a popular topic for discussion in recent decades. These jets can often be characterised by increases in the dynamic pressure compared to the background plasma.
