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.

On the Magnetic Field Configuration of the Magnetosheath
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

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

Kinetic‐Scale Turbulence in the Venusian Magnetosheath [PDF]
Abstract While not specifically designed as a planetary mission, NASA's Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission uses a series of Venus gravity assists (VGAs) in order to reduce its perihelion distance. These orbital maneuvers provide the opportunity for direct measurements of the Venus plasma environment at high cadence.

Magnetosheath waves under very low solar wind dynamic pressure: Wind/Geotail observations [PDF]
The expanded bow shock on and around "the day the solar wind almost disappeared" (11 May 1999) allowed the Geotail spacecraft to make a practically uninterrupted 54-h-long magnetosheath pass near dusk (16:30-21:11 magnetic local time) at a radial ...

Energetic Electron Pitch-angle Distributions in the Martian Space Environment: Pancake
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:

The penetration of ions into the magnetosphere through the magnetopause turbulent current sheet [PDF]
This paper reports the results of numerical modeling of magnetosheath ion motion in the magnetopause current sheet (MCS) in the presence of magnetic fluctuations.

Geoeffectiveness of Magnetosheath Jets
<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.

Cluster observations of bounday layer structure and a flux transfer event near the cusp [PDF]
On the 25th January 2002 between 10:00 and 12:00 UT, the four Cluster spacecraft passed through the northern high-latitude cusp, the dayside magnetosphere and into the magnetosheath in a linear formation.

The Evolution of Parallel Electric Field Across the Earth's Magnetosheath
Abstract In Earth's collisionless magnetosheath, turbulence evolution and energy transformation across the system, especially at kinetic scales, remain poorly quantified without full‐coverage of high‐resolution observations. Using multi‐traversal observations from the 2023 and 2024 Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Unbiased Magnetosheath Campaign, we ...
