Interplanetary shock transmitted into the Earth's magnetosheath: Cluster and Double Star observations
Rème, H.; Cao, J. B.; Carr, C. M. +4 more
On day 7 May 2005, the plasma instruments on board Double Star TC1 and Cluster SC3 spacecraft register inside the magnetosheath, at 19:15:12 and 19:16:20 UT, respectively, a strong pressure pulse due to the impact of an interplanetary shock wave (IS) on the terrestrial bow shock. The analysis of this event provides clear and quantitative evidences…
The large-scale magnetospheric electric field observed by Double Star TC-1
Rème, H.; Carr, C.; Liu, Z. X. +4 more
The relationship between the average structure of the inner magnetospheric large-scale electric field and geomagnetic activity levels has been investigated by Double Star TC-1 data for radial distances ρ between 4.5 RE and 12.5 RE and MLT between 18:00 h and 06:00 h from July to October in 2004 and 2005. The sunward component…
