Scientific paper
Three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth's magnetosphere are used to study the complex dynamics of the magnetospheric boundary. The study focuses on identifying and understanding the consequences of the large-scale motion of the magnetospheric boundary. To achieve this goal we modeled actual events using plasma and magnetic field parameters measured upstream of the bow shock by the Wind and Ace spacecraft for different solar wind regimes. We discuss the simulation results in the context of time series along several downstream spacecraft trajectories at the dayside boundary and auroral observations. In particular, we examine the large-scale motion of the magnetospheric boundary observed during strong variations of the solar wind dynamic pressure.
