Our investigation is based on the results of the numerical simulation, which describes the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth’s magnetosphere. The 3D numerical magnetosheath-magnetosphere model is adopted for the description of this interaction. The flow in the magnetosheath is governed by Euler’s equations of the ideal gas. Magnetospheric magnetic field model, which in fact is a modification of the Tsyganenko magnetic field model, is applied in the area of the magnetosphere. The solution (including plasma parameters distribution in the magnetosheath) is achieved as a result of the self-consistent interaction between the modules of the magnetosheath and the magnetosphere. For our purposes an event of satellite passage in the cusp area in the magnetosheath is chosen and we examine the variations of the parameters along the satellite trajectory. We discuss the ability of our model in description of the geometry of the magnetopause and the parameters distribution in the magnetosheath region. |
