Single-spacecraft techniques for shock parameters estimation: A systematic approach

Domenico Trotta, Laura Vuorinen, Heli Hietala +8

Spacecraft missions provide the unique opportunity to study the properties of collisionless shocks utilising in situ measurements. In the past years, several diagnostics have been…

Interplanetary Shock-induced Magnetopause Motion: Comparison between Theory and Global Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations

Ravindra T. Desai, Mervyn P. Freeman, Jonathan P. Eastwood +10

The magnetopause marks the outer edge of the Earth's magnetosphere and a distinct boundary between solar wind and magnetospheric plasma populations. In this letter, we use global m…

Direct Multipoint Observations Capturing the Reformation of a Supercritical Fast Magnetosonic Shock

D. L. Turner, L. B. Wilson, K. A. Goodrich +12

Using multipoint Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations in an unusual string-of-pearls configuration, we examine in detail observations of the reformation of a fast magnetoso…

Enhanced proton parallel temperature inside patches of switchbacks in the inner heliosphere

L. D. Woodham, T. S. Horbury, L. Matteini +16

Switchbacks are discrete angular deflections in the solar wind magnetic field that have been observed throughout the heliosphere. Recent observations by Parker Solar Probe (PSP) ha…

Electron acceleration by magnetosheath jet-driven bow waves

Terry Z. Liu, Heli Hietala, Vassilis Angelopoulos +2

Magnetosheath jets are localized fast flows with enhanced dynamic pressure. When they supermagnetosonically compress the ambient magnetosheath plasma, a bow wave or shock can form…

Statistical study of magnetosheath jet-driven bow waves

Terry Z. Liu, Heli Hietala, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3

When a magnetosheath jet (localized dynamic pressure enhancements) compresses ambient magnetosheath at a (relative) speed faster than the local magnetosonic speed, a bow wave or sh…
