Solar Wind: Earth Magnetosphere, Geomagnetic Field: Interplanetary Magnetic Field

Scientific paper

Different properties of fast variations of solar wind ion flux and magnetic field in the foreshock region upstream of the Earth's bow shock are considered by using high-duty observations aboard INTERBALL-1 and its sub-satellite MAGION-4 during two multiple-hour time intervals. It is shown that large variations of the ion flux and the magnetic field magnitude in the foreshock exist simultaneously. The most interesting result is the discovery of high positive correlation between the solar wind ion flux and the interplanetary magnetic field magnitude in the foreshock. The authors interpret this correlation as evidence of generation of a fast mode of magnetosonic waves.
