Dynamic Test Particle Simulations of X‐Ray Emissions at Dayside Magnetopause Under Time‐Varying Solar Wind Conditions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Latmos Test Particle (LaTeP) model is a steady‐state test particle code to investigate the solar wind charge exchange soft X‐ray emissions of the steady‐state Earth magnetosphere. In this study, we present the development of a new dynamic version (D‐LaTeP) extending the LaTeP model to adapt to time‐varying solar wind conditions.

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 ...

Spatial distribution of plasma density and magnetic field amplitude in the dayside magnetosheath as a function of the IMF orientation

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The properties of the magnetosheath are of pivotal importance in determining the coupling between the magnetosphere and interplanetary medium. In particular, the magnetic flux pileup and plasma depletion layer (PDL) modify the boundary conditions of ...

Experimental and numerical investigation of plasma parameters in the magnetosheath

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
We investigate the behaviour of the plasma parameters in the magnetosheath in a case when Interball-1 satellite stayed in the magnetosheath, crossing the tail magnetopause.

Geoeffectiveness of Magnetosheath Jets

, 2019
In this report we present spacecraft and ground-based observations of magnetosheath jets impacting the magnetosphere, both as a case study and a statistical study. In the case study, jets were detected in the magnetosheath by the Magnetospheric MultiScale mission, MMS.

Model Predictions of Magnetosheath Conditions [PDF]

, 2013
The magnetosheath and its two boundaries - the bow shock and the magnetopause - interface the magnetosphere with the solar wind. This interface specifies the upstream conditions for magnetospheric models. Major progress has been made in the last few years in specifying the magnetosheath conditions. The classical Spreiter magnetosheath model is modified

Thick escaping magnetospheric ion layer in magnetopause reconnection with MMS observations

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The structure of asymmetric magnetopause reconnection is explored with multiple point and high‐time‐resolution ion velocity distribution observations from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission.

Kinetic evidence of magnetic reconnection due to Kelvin‐Helmholtz waves

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) instability at the Earth's magnetopause is predominantly excited during northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). Magnetic reconnection due to KH waves has been suggested as one of the mechanisms to transfer solar wind ...
