Any change in external current through the magnetosphere causes a convection restructuring within a time on the order of the travel time of the magnetosonic wave from the magnetopause to the center of the system, because the restructuring wave comes from both flanks. ❋ Unknown (2010)

This remarkable set of observations shows that magnetic reconnection at the magnetopause is not as simple as it is described in textbooks! ❋ Unknown (2010)
For the first time, four spacecraft flying in constellation the ESA Cluster mission, have provided unambiguous evidence of anti-parallel reconnection at high latitude on the dayside magnetopause, occurring quasi-simultaneously with a period of low-latitude component reconnection detected by the Sino-European Double Star TC-1 satellite. ❋ Unknown (2010)
"These observations support the idea that both anti-parallel and component reconnection occur at the dayside magnetopause under the same IMF conditions and that both phenomena might be the local signatures of a global reconnection picture", says Professor Malcolm Dunlop from the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Didcot, UK. ❋ Unknown (2010)
This study reports the observation of fissures on the Sun-facing side of the Earth's magnetic shield – the dayside magnetopause. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Solar wind, or the magnetopause environment of the solar system, might in the future play a role. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Far beyond Jupiter and its moons, beyond the magnetopause, Mahnmut could sense the bow shock turbulence crashing like great white waves on a hidden reef, could hear the upstream Langmuir waves singing in the magnetic darkness past that reef, and could pick out the ion acoustic waves crackling after their long voyage uphill from the sun. ❋ Simmons, Dan (1981)
Cluster 3 spacecraft was positioned just in front of the magnetopause, where it measured the number of deflected solar-wind protons directly. ❋ Unknown (2010)
This falloff makes sense, Fuselier says, because Earth's magnetopause isn't spherical. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Because IBEX is orbiting Earth, it also has a front-row seat for observing the chaotic pileup of solar-wind particles occurring along the "nose" of Earth's magnetopause, about 35,000 miles out. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Instead, they're shocked, heated, and slowed almost to a stop as they pile up along its outer boundary, the magnetopause, before getting diverted sideways. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Saturn's magnetopause (its electromagnetic envelope) has a magnetic tail which extends away from the sun. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The spacecraft's observations show the solar wind piling up in front of the magnetopause - the boundary between and space, about 35,000 miles (56,327 km) toward the sun. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The key observations were made in March and April 2009, when IBEX was located far from Earth - about halfway to the Moon's orbit - and its detectors could scan the region directly in front of the magnetopause. ❋ Unknown (2010)
