Generation of Anomalous Flows Near the Bow Shock by Its Interaction with Interplanetary Discontinuities

Abstract

LONG-TERM GOAL. To understand the generation of various waves and associated pressure pulses in the magnetosphere by the interaction of interplanetary discontinuities with the earth s bow shock, to understand the coupling among the solar wind, magnetosphere, and ionosphere, and to improve our knowledge of the ambient and disturbed space environment, which has been emphasized by the Office of Naval Research.
