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.

Kinetic‐Scale Turbulence in the Venusian Magnetosheath [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 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.

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 ...

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.

Magnetosheath waves under very low solar wind dynamic pressure: Wind/Geotail observations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 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
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:

The penetration of ions into the magnetosphere through the magnetopause turbulent current sheet [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2003 This paper reports the results of numerical modeling of magnetosheath ion motion in the magnetopause current sheet (MCS) in the presence of magnetic fluctuations.

Cluster observations of bounday layer structure and a flux transfer event near the cusp [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 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.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.Abstract As an airless body, the lunar surface is charged as a result of balancing electric currents into and away from the surface. Lunar surface charging is important for both scientific and human‐exploration purposes. The nightside surface charging has been well characterized by previous studies, but less so for the dayside.
