Some magnetic impulse events observed in the polar region are related to vortices associated with plasma convection in the ionosphere. Recent analyses of satellite and ground data suggest that the interaction of solar wind dynamic pressure pulses and

The present paper shows that the reflected ion at a supercritical quasiperpendicular shock wave can excite a purely growing m9de propagating parallel to the ambient magnetic field (k∥B0). To discuss the ion heating by such an unstable mode, the sel

The magnetic field and plasma data from the ISEE 1, 2, and 3 spacecraft have greatly increased our knowledge of the quasi-parallel collisionless shock in space. Hybrid-code simulations have provided us with valuable insights into the physics of the q

Current layers of transverse scale length smaller than the ion skin depth destabilize whistlers. A set of 3D electromagnetic fluid equations describing the nonlinear development of the layer is derived. In simulations based on these equations, the cu

The high correlation of Pc 1 events with magnetospheric compressions is known. A mechanism is proposed which leads to the generation of Pc 1 waves. The interaction of a dynamic pressure pulse with the earth's bow shock leads to the formation of a wea

The electrostatic potential jump across fast-mode collisionless shocks is examined by comparing published observations, hybrid simulations, and a simple model, in order to better characterize its dependence on the various shock parameters. In all thr

A simulation of quasi-parallel (QP) collisionless shock waves is used to deduce the dispersive and viscous scale lengths of QP shocks. The findings were found to be consistent with the observational results obtained by Scudder et al. (1984) and Kenne

Consideration is given to the shell distribution formed by pickup ions in the solar wind. Numerical simulations are used to study the linear and nonlinear development of the waves and the evolution of the initial shell distribution. The linear theory

A longstanding question in the field of magnetospheric physics is the source of the energetic particles which are commonly observed along the plasma-sheet boundary layer (PSBL). Several models have been suggested for the acceleration of these particl

Ion equation of state in the quasi-parallel collisionless shock is deduced from simulation results. The simulations were performed for theta(bn) = 10 deg, beta = 0.5 and M sub A in the range from 1.2 to 8, where M sub A is the Alfven Mach number, bet
