The variations of the plasma parameters and of the magnetic field in the vicinity of the stream line passing the subsolar point at the magnetopause are calculated using a special topology of the plasma flow which is the result of the formation of a stagnation line at the nose part of the magnetopause. The displacement of the magnetopause due to the penetration of the solar wind magnetic field is discussed.
