| 内容記述 | The intrinsic magnetic fields of Mercury, the earth, Jupiter and Saturn, all deflect the solar wind well above the planetary surface. The current layer or magnetopause which flows between the magnetized solar wind and magnetospheric plasmas should play an important role in determining the strength of the interaction but has only been investigated at the earth where the interplanetary magnetic field direction is found to exert a primary control on the structure of the magnetopause and the global dynamics of the magnetosphere. The solar wind interaction with Venus is quite different than that with the earth because Venus has at most a very weak magnetic field. Nevertheless, the current layer on the Venus ionopause has many similarities to that of the earth, in particular the presence of small scale structure. |
