Low-frequency magnetic field fluctuations in Venus' solar wind interaction region: Venus Express observations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2010 We investigate wave properties of low-frequency magnetic field fluctuations in Venus' solar wind interaction region based on the measurements made on board the Venus Express spacecraft.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract The upper thermosphere is important in the context of space weather, but continuous monitoring of the thermosphere at high latitudes remains limited despite its strong variations associated with geomagnetic activity. Orthohelium, He(23S), is found from the upper thermosphere to lower exosphere, and is a promising tracer of atmospheric dynamics.

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 ...

Three-dimensional Global Hybrid Simulation of Magnetosheath Jets at Mercury
The Astrophysical Journal LettersPlasma high-speed jets are common in Earth’s magnetosheath, and they significantly perturb the magnetosheath and affect the magnetosphere. The space environment of Mercury, characterized by the bow shock, magnetosheath, and magnetosphere, shares many ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract Along the flank magnetopause, magnetosheath flow interfaced with the relatively stationary magnetosphere produces strong flow shears, and the Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) occurs. When the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is southward, anti‐parallel day‐side reconnection and KHI can interact, which may enhance the reconnection rate as ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.Abstract Magnetic reconnection at the dayside magnetopause is the primary pathway for transferring mass, momentum, and energy from the solar wind into the terrestrial magnetosphere. Previous studies have shown that the spatiotemporal dynamics of dayside magnetic reconnection can be inferred remotely from properties of Earth's cusps, specifically their ...

Unveiling the 3D Structure of Magnetosheath Jets
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 Magnetosheath jets represent localized enhancements in dynamic pressure observed within the magnetosheath. These energetic entities, carrying excess energy and momentum, can impact the magnetopause and disrupt the magnetosphere. Therefore, they play a vital role in coupling the solar wind and terrestrial magnetosphere. However, our understanding of the

Ionospheric Scintillation Induced by Hot Flow Anomalies via Particle Precipitation
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 7, October 2026.Abstract Ionospheric scintillation disrupts trans‐ionospheric radio signals and represents significant challenges for critical communication and navigation systems. Here we document that hot flow anomalies (HFAs), transient disturbances formed near Earth's bow shock, can contribute to scintillation near the cusp.

Ion anisotropies in the magnetosheath
Geophysical Research Letters, 1993 One‐ and two‐dimensional initial value hybrid computer simulations are used with a magnetosheath parameter model to study the consequences of the growth of the mirror and ion cyclotron anisotropy instabilities. Magnetosheath observations have demonstrated inverse correlations between the proton and helium ion temperature anisotropies and the proton ...

Mirror waves and mode transition observed in the magnetosheath by Double Star TC-1 [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 The Double Star TC-1 magnetosheath pass on 26 February 2004 is used to investigate magnetic field fluctuations. Strong compressional signatures which last for more than an hour have been found near the magnetopause behind a quasi-perpendicular bow ...
