Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive study of the magnetospheric response to a hot flow anomaly

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive observational study of the magnetospheric response to an interplanetary magnetic field tangential discontinuity, which first struck the postnoon bow shock and magnetopause and then swept past the prenoon bow-shocks and magnetopsause on July 24, 1996.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small scale observation of magnetopause motion: preliminary results of the INTERBALL project

TL;DR: In this article, two satellites of the INTERBALL project were launched on 3 August 1995 and used to estimate the velocity of the magnetopause and reconstruct a possible structure of the boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transient flux enhancements in the magnetosheath

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present INTERBALL-1 and MAGION-4 observations of transient ion flux variations in the magnetosheath which cannot be related to similar changes in the solar wind observed by WIND and GEOTAIL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Super fast plasma streams as drivers of transient and anomalous magnetospheric dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present multi spacecraft measurements in the magnetosheath (MSH) and in the solar wind (SW) by Interball, Cluster and Polar, demonstrating that coherent structures with magnetosonic Mach number up to 3 generate transient and anomalous boundary dynamics, which may cause substantial displacements of the magnetospheric boundaries and the riddling of peripheral boundary layers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ion kinetic scale in the solar wind observed.

TL;DR: This Letter shows the first results from the solar wind monitor onboard the Spektr-R spacecraft which measures plasma moments with a time resolution of 31 ms, and reveals that although these parameters exhibit the same behavior at the magnetohydrodynamic scale, their spectra are remarkably different at the kinetic scale.
