Motion of the heliospheric termination shock 3. Incident interplanetary shocks
In this paper the response of the heliospheric termination shock to an incident interplanetary shock is examined. This paper is an extension of a recent study by Barnes (1993), which treated the analogous problem for an incident contact discontinuity. The termination shock is treated as a strong gasdynamic shock. The postinteraction configuration consists of a moving termination shock, a postsh...
متن کاملEvolution of an Interplanetary Shock in the Magnetosheath
We have prepared a short case study of a propagation of an interplanetary shock through the solar wind and magnetosheath. For this particular case, magnetic field and plasma measurements from four spacecraft in the solar wind and one in the magnetosheath are available. It allows us to determine both local and global shock planes and shock propagation speeds in the solar wind as well as local sh...
متن کاملSimulation of Shock Waves in the Interplanetary Medium
The shocks in the solar corona and interplanetary (IP) space caused by fast Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are simulated numerically and their structure and evolution is studied in the framework of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Due to the presence of three characteristic velocities and the anisotropy induced by the magnetic field, CME shocks generated in the lower corona can have a complex structu...
متن کاملModeling Accelerated Pick-up Ion Distributions at an Interplanetary Shock
The acceleration of interstellar pick-up ions as well as solar wind species has been observed at a multitude of interplanetary (IP) shocks by different spacecraft. The efficiency of injection of the pick-up ion component differs from that of the solar wind, and is expected to be strongly enhanced at highly oblique and quasi-perpendicular shock events, in accord with inferences from in situ obse...
متن کاملLarge‐amplitude electrostatic waves observed at a supercritical interplanetary shock
[1] We present the first observations at an interplanetary shock of large‐amplitude (> 100 mV/m pk‐pk) solitary waves and large‐amplitude (∼30 mV/m pk‐pk) waves exhibiting characteristics consistent with electron Bernstein waves. The Bernstein‐like waves show enhanced power at integer and half‐integer harmonics of the cyclotron frequency with a broadened power spectrum at higher frequencies, co...
