内容記述 | Examples of highly coherent, low-frequency waves that were observed by Voyager 2 in the IMF during several months following the Saturn encounter in 1981 are presented. It is shown that the detection of these events was due to a favorably oriented IMF. These events are discussed in terms of correlated ion and magnetic field data, and the evolution of their properties with incresing distance from Saturn is addressed. The spectral and eigenfunction characteristics of the observed waves are shown, and the mode of the waves and their possible excitation mechanisms are considered, including an instability analysis. The results are compared with those obtained in the foreshock regions of other planets, especially the earth. |
