Unlike most cosmic plasma structures, planetary magnetospheres can be extensively studied in situ. In particular, studies of the Earth’s magnetosphere over the past few decades have resulted in a relatively good experimental understanding of both its basic structural properties and its response to changes in the impinging solar wind. In this article we provide a broad overview, designed for researchers...
The Earth’s bow shock is known to produce non-thermal electrons which are generally observed as a ‘spike’ in their flux profile. Here, in this paper, we present an analysis of electron and whistler wave properties for a quasi-perpendicular shock crossing that is supercritical, but subcritical to the so-called whistler critical Mach number, M critw , above which whistler waves cannot propagate upstream...
