Scientific paper

One-dimensional hybrid models are used to study the boundary layer structures that form at early times upstream of an AMPTE release in the solar wind or magnetosheath flow. The study emphasizes local interaction in terms of simple properties of supercritical, quasi-perpendicular shock transitions. The simulations are an extension of those of Chapman and Schwartz (1987) for the case of a release in the solar wind. The key features of the results are interpreted in terms of the ion kinetics and bulk plasma behavior of the transitions.
