| 内容記述 | The plasma-analyzer experiments on Pioneers 10 and 11 have determined that the characteristics of the solar-wind interaction with the Jovian magnetosphere are basically similar to those observed for the solar-wind interaction of earth and differ mainly in terms of the scale size of the interaction. The Jovian magnetosheath flow field and the calculated normals to the Jovian magnetosphere indicate that the Jovian magnetosphere is extremely thick and blunt in shape. The size of the Jovian magnetosphere in the sunward (dayside) direction can change by as much as a factor of two in response to relatively minor changes in solar-wind dynamic pressure. The outer dayside Jovian magnetosphere is inflated with a high-beta thermal plasma. |
