IMF cone angle control of the magnetopause location: Statistical study

Original language description

We investigate the dependence of the magnetopause location on the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) cone angle (the angle between the IMF and solar wind velocity vectors) in a statistical study based on ?6500 magnetopause crossings observed by the fiveTHEMIS spacecraft, both at the dayside and flanks. The results demonstrate a systematic increase of the magnetopause distance for radial IMF directions. Moreover, a stronger dependence of the magnetopause location on the solar wind dynamic pressure thanpredicted by the current models was observed.
