The thickness of magnetic structures of the interplanetary shock waves related to the upstream solar wind plasma parameters are studied. The following results were obtained: the measured shock thickness increase for decreasing upstream proton number density and decreases for increasing proton flux energy. The shock thickness strongly depends on the ion plasma (alpha); i.e., for higher values of the the thickness decreases.
