Scientific paper

The paper discusses the geomagnetopause surface fluctuations observed by Voyager 1. Normals to the magnetopause were determined for the crossings of Voyager 1 by minimum variance analysis of the internal magnetic field; the oscillating nature of the ecliptic plane component of these normals indicates that the multiple crossings were due to a wavelike surface disturbance moving tailward along the magnetopause. The estimated amplitude of these waves was small compared to their wavelengths; this conclusion is independent of any bulk normal motion of the magnetopause.
