Solar Wind and Interplanetary Magnetic Field: A Tutorial
The convection layer completes the transport of energy from the nuclear furnace at the center of the sun to its radiation into space by the photosphere, but most importantly for the solar wind it sets the temporal and spatial scales for the structure of the coronal magnetic field that in turn controls the properties of the solar wind. In this tutorial review we examine the properties of the fie...
متن کاملParticles and fields in the interplanetary medium.
M\Ian's knowledge of the properties of interplanetary space has advanced radically since 1962, the major part of this advance occurring since the commencement of the International Years of the Quiet Sun. The IQSY has, in fact, been quite unique in that it has seen the augmentation of the extensive synoptic studies of both geophysical and solar phenomena such as were mounted during the IGY and i...
متن کاملDependence of the depth of the Earth ’ s plasma depletion layer on the interplanetary magnetic field direction and the Alfvénic Mach number
The Earth’s magnetosheath, the transition region between the Earth’s magnetopause and the bow shock, is a space laboratory for the investigation of magnetoactive plasmas. Analogeous studies are also the aim of the LAPLAS experiment planned for the FAIR facility at GSI [1]. One of the recent problems of the magnetosheath physics is the dependence of its plasma depletion layer on the direction of...
متن کاملSolar cycle changes in coronal holes and space weather cycles
[1] Potential field source surface models of the coronal magnetic field, based on Mt. Wilson Observatory synoptic magnetograms, are used to infer the coronal hole sources of low-heliolatitude solar wind over approximately the last three solar cycles. Related key parameters like interplanetary magnetic field and bulk velocity are also calculated. The results illustrate how the evolving contribut...
متن کاملOn the relationship between shock-induced polar magnetic bays and solar wind parameters
[1] There has been an impression for more than half a century that reductions in the north-south component of the Earth’s magnetic field in the polar region (often called ‘‘negative magnetic bays’’ or ‘‘polar magnetic bays’’) may occur immediately after compression of the magnetosphere by interplanetary (IP) shock impacts, in particular when the magnetosphere is ‘‘preconditioned’’ by southward ...
