The interaction between the solar wind and an unmagnetized planet (Venus or Mars) was investigated in the computer simulations by using a three-dimensional hybrid code (kinetic ions and massless fluid electrons). The purpose of this study is to examine the kinetic effects such as ion pickup and mass loading on macro-scale structures around the planet. The results showed that the shock size and the magnetic barrier intensity were asymmetrical in the direction of the convection electric field because of O+ ions picked up from the side of the planet to which the convection electric field was pointing.
