1. Ion and ENA precipitation onto the upper atmosphere of Venus : Estimate of precipitation maps using data from a hybrid model
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Venus does not have a strong intrinsic magnetic field as the Earth, and its magnetosphere is induced by the interaction of the solar wind with the ionosphere. The near-Venus space environment is characterized by the presence of a bow shock and of an induced magnetic boundary linked to the interplanetary magnetic field orientation. READ MORE

2. The connection between the bow shock at Mercury and the interplanetary magnetic field
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : As the solar wind reaches Mercury it interacts with the planet’s magnetic field slowing down, forming a bow shock in front of the planet and diverting the flow around it. Along with the solar wind comes the interplanetary magnetic field, an extension of the sun’s magnetic field. READ MORE

3. Identifying Fundamental Characteristics of Shock Nonstationarity using MMS Measurements : Identifying and Distinguishing Non-stationary Behaviour Through the Magnetic Field Gradient in Quasi-perpendicular Shocks
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Collisionless shocks are widespread phenomena in the universe, and understanding the mechanisms behind their energy dissipation, with a rare number of collisions between particles, remains a significant unresolved question. The Earth’s bow shock provides an excellent opportunity to study this phenomena in situ. READ MORE

4. Statistics of Electric and Magnetic Fields at the Earth’s Bow Shock
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The interaction between the solar wind and Earth’s magnetic field creates the Earth’s bow shock. It is an ideal region for space probes like MMS, THEMIS or Clusters to study the collisionless shock phenomenon in space plasma. READ MORE

5. Modelling of the Bow Shock and Magnetopause of Jupiter Using In-situ Juno Data
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : When the solar wind encounters a planet’s magnetic field, they interact and the different plasma and magnetic field behaviours divides the magnetosphere into different regions. Two important region boundaries to the outer magnetosphere, called the magnetosheath, are the bow shock and magnetopause. READ MORE
