Origin of interplanetary southward magnetic fields responsible for major magnetic storms near solar maximum (1978–1979)
TL;DR: In this article, simultaneous ISEE-3 field and plasma data were used to examine interplanetary phenomena associated with 10 major magnetic storms detected from August 16, 1978, to December 28, 1979, in a study of Gonzalez and Tsurutani (1987), and, in particular, to determine the origins of the southward magnetic fields which caused the storms.

Interplanetary studies: Propagation of disturbances between the Sun and the magnetosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the interplanetary "transmission line" between the Sun and the Earth's magnetosphere is concerned with the evolution of energy, mass, and momentum transfer.

Evolution of Coronal Mass Ejections in the Inner Heliosphere: A Study using White-light and Scintillation Images
TL;DR: In this paper, the radial evolution of 30 large CMEs (angular width > 150∘) has been investigated between the Sun and the Earth using (i) the white-light images of the near-Sun region from the Large Angle Spectroscopic Coronagraph (LASCO) onboard SOHO mission and (ii) the interplanetary scintillation (IPS) images from the Ooty Radio Telescope (ORT).
Journal ArticleDOI
Physics of the outer heliosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, major advances in the physics of the outer heliosphere are reviewed for the 1987-1990 time frame, focusing on five broad topics: the detailed structure of the solar wind at large heliocentric distances, the global structure of interplanetary field, latidudinal variations and meridional flows, radial and temporal variations, and the interaction of solar wind with the local interstellar medium.

The evolution of corotating stream fronts near the ecliptic plane in the inner solar system: 2. Three‐dimensional tilted‐dipole fronts
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a numerical model that treats the 3D magnetohydrodynamic interactions taking place at interplanetary corotating stream fronts near the heliographic equator during those periods of the solar cycle when the large-scale coronal magnetic structure is in the tilted-dipole configuration.

A three-dimensional MHD simulation of the interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere - The generation of field-aligned currents
TL;DR: In this paper, the time-dependent interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere is simulated using a three-dimensional MHD model and Birkeland field-aligned currents that are dependent on the polarity of the z component of the IMF are produced.

A Detached Shock Calculation by Second Order Finite Differences
TL;DR: In this paper, a detached shock problem for a symmetric curved convex cylindrical body moving parallel to its plane of symmetry was solved by using a third-order accurate Richtmyer form of the Lax-Wendroff conservation equations.

Difference methods for the inviscid and viscous equations of a compressible gas.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined several second-order accurate schemes for the solution of one-dimensional flows containing discontinuities, and two generalizations of these schemes were used for the Navier-Stokes equations.
