摘要:Measurement of energy distributions in the wave vector domain reveals how anisotropy of turbulent magnetic field fluctuations evolves as the solar wind encounters the terrestrial bow shock and the magnetosphere.While fluctuations in the solar wind, the magnetosheath, and the magnetospheric cusp regions are characterized by the perpendicular wave vector geometry to the mean magnetic field direction, that in the foreshock region is characterized by the parallel wave vector geometry.Linear and nonlinear plasma processes are discussed for the anisotropy evolution.
