Scientific paper

The slow shocks which have been observed in the distant geomagnetic tail by ISEE 3 do not exhibit the large-amplitude magnetic field rotations which are theoretically expected. A possible explanation is that the rotation trailing wave train is resistively damped by strong lower hybrid drift turbulence excited in the shock front. Magnetic wave spectra for three slow shocks are constructed from ISEE 3 dc magnetometer and search coil experiments. The observed magnetic amplitudes near the lower hybrid frequency are below the level at which anomalous resistance would damp the slow shock magnetic rotations.
