Scientific paper

This paper summarizes plasma and magnetic-field observations made in the
vicinity of the quasi-perpendicular shock at moderate and higher flow
Mach numbers when a fraction of the incident ions are initially
reflected from, but gyrate back to, the shock surface. This reflection
constitutes an important first step of the ion heating process.
