Scientific paper

We analyze the high-resolution magnetic field data from Lunar Prospector to study waves in the 0.5-4.5 Hz frequency range in the vicinity of the Moon. We study the position of these waves in selenographic and solar wind coordinates. The wave power decreases with solar zenith angle and while the Moon is in the Earth's magnetotail, indicating that the solar wind drives them. We further discuss the influence of solar wind conditions on the waves through comparison with upstream solar wind parameters.
