Scientific paper

A physical mechanism that may explain the observations at the boundary layer between the magnetosheath and the dayside ionosphere of nonmagnetic planets was investigated. The mechanism is based on a beam particle type interaction between the shocked solar wind and cold planetary ions. Some of the consequences of these interaction processes were established using Pioneer-Venus Orbiter and Phobos-2 observations. However, the identification of the accelerated electrons in the case of Venus eluded detection.
