The effects of lithium ion releases on solar wind flow are investigated. The background field conditions during the releases on September 11 and 20, 1984 are discussed. The magnetic field data recorded by the Ion Release Module and United Kingdom Satellite are described. It is observed that the first release occurred on the field lines connecting to the earth's bow shock causing difficulty in separating the effects of natural large scale perturbations from the ion effects. In the second release, which occurred in a stable, ambient environment, the characteristics of a Venus-like perturbation of the magnetic field are detected. It is concluded that in both releases a field cavity is formed, the field transverse to the solar wind flow is amplified, and the transverse component is compressed.
