Scientific Discipline Magnetosheath

Space Science & Space Physics

Editors' Highlights 3 January 2018

The “Magnetic-less” Magnetotail Boundary

Most boundaries in space are governed by magnetic fields, but not far behind the Earth, where the field change across the magnetopause plays very little role in the pressure balance relationship.

Space Science & Space Physics
Researchers examine how Saturn’s magnetic field overlaps with that of the Sun.

Research Spotlight 10 October 2017

Probing the Cusps of Saturn’s Magnetic Field

Data from the Cassini spacecraft show that the cusp regions of Saturn’s magnetic field—where it connects to the Sun’s magnetic field—have similarities to Earth’s and also intriguing differences.

Planetary Sciences
The Sun’s magnetic field lines, shown here using a model, can further twist and loop after they encounter near-Earth space.

Research Spotlight 4 April 2017

Explaining Unexpected Twists in the Sun's Magnetic Field

New research shows how the Sun's magnetic field can shift when it approaches Earth, which can throw off space weather forecasts.
