Scientific paper

A study of the transmission of magnetosheath hydromagnetic fluctuations with f of about 23 mHz and f of about 13 mHz through the magnetopause is reported. The study involves measurements of the fluctuations inside the magnetosphere on the ISEE-2 spacecraft near the equator and on the ground near the boundary flux tube connecting with the spacecraft. The magnetic energy of the fluctuations inside the magnetopause is about 1 percent of those in the magnetosheath. This ratio is consistent with that expected for the transmission of fast-mode waves through a magnetopause with a tangential discontinuity.
