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…
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…
Magnetohydrodynamic with embedded particle-in-cell simulation of the Geospace Environment Modeling dayside kinetic processes challenge event
Yuxi Chen, Gabor Toth, Heli Hietala +7
We use the MHD with embedded particle-in-cell model (MHD-EPIC) to study the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) dayside kinetic processes challenge event at 01:50-03:00 UT on 2015-…
