Solar Wind


SVS >> Solar Wind
Movie ID Title
This is a short movie of the Sun in ultraviolet light at solar minimum. 3548 Comparison: Solar Minimum from SOHO/EIT
This movie illustrates the three months of orbital maneuvers which transition the five satellites from their dayside science to nightside science configuration. 3394 THEMIS Orbits: Transitions
This movie starts from a view of the aurora (simulated) over the north polar region and pulls outward to show the THEMIS spacecraft sampling the region of space 'downwind' from the Earth. 3392 THEMIS Orbits: Nightside Science Configuration
This movie looks down onto the north pole of the Earth and the five THEMIS spacecraft travelling along a single elliptical orbit. The Sun is to the left. 3391 THEMIS Orbits: Dayside Science Configuration
A rendering of the model of the Earths magnetosphere. The flat ribbons represent charged particles entering the influence of the magnetosphere and being deflected. The curved lines visible to the right represent the magnetic field lines extending out from the Earth. The force from the sun pushes these lines into a distinctive tail-like shape. Finally, the green surface represents a constant value for the magnetic field strength. 3028 A 3-Dimensional Model of the Magnetosphere (WMS)
In the case of low solar wind pressure, the sunward side of the ionosphere is thick (the red region) and some of the atmosphere can be seen trailing off behind the planet. 2962 Computer Simulations of the Martian Atmosphere Interacting with the Solar Wind
Projecting spacecraft field measurements along the solar wind reveals structure in the flow. 2863 ViSBARD: The Wind from the Sun
A bright moment for the proton aurora - the bright spot near the center. 2861 Reconnection: Solar Wind Breaches the Earth's Magnetic Shield
The polar regions begin to brighten due to increased influx of oxygen atoms onto the upper atmosphere. 2445 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (blue version)
A view of the oxygen atom flux near the Earths poles at low intensity. 2444 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (rainbow version)
Oxygen atoms (green) blowing off from the Earths atmosphere. 2435 IMAGE/LENA Observes Oxygen Atoms in the near-Earth Environment
A profile view of the magnetosphere. The Sun would be located to the left. Lines from the Earths magnetic field are stretched out behind the Earth to form the magnetotail. 2391 Magnetosphere II: The Solar Wind Strikes Back!
