The magnetosheath is the region of space between the magnetopause and the bow shock of a planet`s magnetosphere. The regularly organized magnetic field generated by the planet becomes weak and irregular in the magnetosheath due to interaction with the incoming solar wind, and is incapable of fully deflecting the highly charged particles. The dens....

The region between a planet`s magnetopause and the bow shock caused by the solar wind. Within the magnetosheath, the magnetic field is turbulent, distorted, weaker than the magnetospheric field, and deflected from an orientation in the outer magnetosheath, which is similar to that of the interplanet...
