Journal ArticleDOI

J.-H. Shue,Paul Song,Christopher T. Russell,John T. Steinberg,J. K. Chao,G. N. Zastenker,O. L. Vaisberg,Susumu Kokubun,Howard J. Singer,T. R. Detman,Hideaki Kawano +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare predictions of two models: the Petrinec and Russell [1996] model and the Shue et al. [1997] model along the flank.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new functional form to study the solar wind control of the magnetopause size and shape
J.-H. Shue,J. K. Chao,H. C. Fu,Christopher T. Russell,Paul Song,Krishan K. Khurana,Howard J. Singer +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new functional form, r = r 0 [2/(1 + cos θ)] α, is used to fit the size and shape of the magnetopause using crossings from ISEE 1 and 2, Active Magnetospheric Particle Tracer Explorers/Ion Release Module (AMPTE/IRM), and IMP 8 satellites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the solar wind dynamic pressure on the decay and injection of the ring current
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the solar wind dynamic pressure on the decay and injection of the ring current was investigated empirically, on the basis of the OMNI database, for the period from January 1964 to July 2001.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of bow shock models using Wind and Geotail observations
TL;DR: In this article, a wide range of wind and geotail observed bow shock (BS) crossings were selected from the 1998 to 2001 ISTP database, where ACE, wind, and Geotail measurements were used to determine the upstream solar wind conditions in the interplanetary medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dawn‐dusk asymmetry of geosynchronous magnetopause crossings
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the dawn-dusk asymmetry of the magnetopause at geosynchronous orbit and found that the asymmetry cannot be attributed to the IMF orientation along the Parker spiral, which is not revealed for strongly disturbed solar wind conditions accompanying the GMCs.
