Ion velocity distributions within the LLBL and their possible implication to multiple reconnections [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2004 We analyze two LLBL crossings made by the Interball-Tail satellite under a southward or variable magnetosheath magnetic field: one crossing on the flank of the magnetosphere, and another one closer to the subsolar point.

MMS Observations of Electron Vorticity in the Earth’s Magnetosheath
The Astrophysical JournalThe Earth’s magnetosheath serves as a natural laboratory to study the transition of highly turbulent fluctuations. The fundamental information about plasma turbulences can be examined observationally with the help of electron vorticity measurements. This

Mshpy23: a user-friendly, parameterized model of magnetosheath conditions
Earth and Planetary PhysicsLunar Environment heliospheric X-ray Imager (LEXI) and Solar wind−Magnetosphere−Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) will observe magnetosheath and its boundary motion in soft X-rays for understanding magnetopause reconnection modes under various solar wind ...

Two types of mirror mode waves in the Kronian magnetosheath
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023 A mirror mode wave is a fundamental magnetic structure in the planetary space environment that is persistently compressed by solar wind, especially in the magnetosheath.

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 ...

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 ...

On the formation of a plasma pressure anisotropy in the dayside magnetosheath [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 1995 We present a numerical solution for the momentum equation of the magnetosheath particles that describes the distribution of the pressure anisotropy of the magnetosheath plasma in the midday meridian plane. The pressure anisotropy is a maximum near the

Coherent wave activity in Mercury's magnetosheath [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2015 AbstractThis study presents a statistical overview of coherent wave activity in Mercury's magnetosheath. Left‐handed electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves are commonly found behind the quasi‐perpendicular section of the bow shock, where they are present in ~50% of the spacecraft crossings of the magnetosheath.

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.

Magnetic clouds' structure in the magnetosheath as observed by Cluster and Geotail: four case studies [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2014 Magnetic clouds (MCs) are large-scale magnetic flux ropes ejected from the Sun into the interplanetary space. They play a central role in solar–terrestrial relations as they can efficiently drive magnetic activity in the near-Earth environment.
