Scientific paper

A database of more than 800 foreshock-like plasma observations close to the Earth's bow shock based on more than 4 years of INTERBALL-1 measurements in the solar wind has been established using carefully selected criteria for a fluctuation level of ion flux (VDP device) and presence of the backstreaming energetic particles (DOK-2). We analysed positions of the identified intervals depending on the corresponding IMF orientation (from undisturbed solar wind, measured by the WIND satellite) and the local INTERBALL-1 magnetic field, the level of correlation between the anti-sunward ion flux and the magnetic field, as well as some other MHD parameters. The results of the analysis are compared with the existing concepts of the foreshock formation.
