Statistics of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field from 0.1 to 30 au. II. Dynamical Variability

The Astrophysical Journal
The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) governs the coupling between the solar wind and planetary magnetospheres through a series of complex interactions.

Three-dimensional Global Hybrid Simulation of Magnetosheath Jets at Mercury

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Plasma 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 ...

Scale size of cometary bow shocks [PDF]

International audienceContext. In past decades, several spacecraft have visited comets to investigate their plasma environments. In the coming years, Comet Interceptor will make yet another attempt. This time, the target comet and its outgassing activity

Simultaneous Observations of 1 Hz Waves Upstream of the Martian Bow Shock by MAVEN and Tianwen-1

The Astrophysical Journal
Low-frequency waves are ubiquitous upstream of planetary bow shocks and contribute significantly to solar wind energy transfer and dissipation. This study presents the first simultaneous observations of 1 Hz waves upstream of the Martian bow shock ...

Concerning the occurrence of bow shocks around high-mass X-ray binaries

, 2019
Context. We investigate the occurrence of stellar bow shocks around high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) in the Galaxy. Aims. We seek to conduct a survey of HMXBs in the mid-infrared to search for the presence of bow shocks around these objects.

Investigation on Upstream Ion Events from the L1 Point Observation: New Insights

The Astrophysical Journal
There has been long-standing controversy regarding the origin and transport of short-lived energetic ion events observed upstream of the Earth’s bow shock. In this work, by adopting a unique method, we study the characteristics of 152 upstream ion events

Imaging polarimetry of planetary and proto-planetary nebulae [PDF]

, 1997
Optical imaging polarimetry has been performed on a small sample of objects which are associated with that stage of stellar evolution occurring between the Asymptotic Giant Branch and full Planetary Nebula. Three such systems are considered, specifically,

Why do massive stars form bow shocks? Bulk ISM motion as the main driver of bow shock formation and geometry

Bow shocks are one the most commonly observed impact sites of massive star feedback and are typically interpreted as evidence for supersonic stellar motion.
