There has been considerable confusion in the literature about what mirror mode (MM),
magnetic decrease (MD), and linear magnetic decrease (LMD) structures are and are not …

The Earth's magnetosphere and its bow shock, which is formed by the interaction of the
supersonic solar wind with the terrestrial magnetic field, constitute a rich natural laboratory …

This chapter focuses on the range of low frequency electromagnetic modes observed at and
upstream of collisionless shocks in the heliosphere. It discusses a specific class of whistler …

The dayside outer zone (DOZ) portion of the magnetosphere is a region where chorus
intensities are statistically found to be the most intense. In this study, DOZ chorus have been …

We investigate the spectral shape, the anisotropy of the wave vector distributions and the
anisotropy of the amplitudes of the magnetic fluctuations in the Earth's magnetosheath within …

When the solar wind encounters the blunt Earth's magnetosphere, a detached shock (ie, the
bow shock) forms at a distance about ten Earth radii from the Earth. The Earth's …

Unambiguous determination of wavevectors (wavelengths and propagation directions) is
one of the major challenges of space plasma observations, since conventional wave …

Interplanetary coronal mass ejections are at the center of the research on geomagnetic
activity. Sheaths, highly fluctuating structures, which can be found in front of fast …

We study the interaction of upstream ultralow frequency (ULF) waves with collisionless
shocks by analyzing the outputs of 11 2D local hybrid simulation runs. Our simulated shocks …

In this paper, we study where mirror mode structures are generated near unmagnetized
solar system bodies (Venus and comet P/Halley measured in situ by Venus Express and …
