Mirror mode structures in the asymmetric Hermean magnetosheath: Hybrid simulations
Original language description
Results of two global three-dimensional hybrid simulations of the solar wind interaction with the Hermean magnetosphere are presented for southward and northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientations. Important dawn-dusk asymmetries of the Hermean bow shock and magnetosheath are observed depending on the IMF orientation. For the southward IMF, the dawnside has a thicker magnetosheath with higher beta values and slower bulk velocities compared to the duskside, whereas for the northward IMF, the duskside has a thicker and higher beta magnetosheath with slower bulk velocities. Mirror mode activity consequently appears at the dawnside for the southward IMF and at the duskside for the northward IMF. A mechanism for the bow shock and magnetosheathasymmetries is proposed and discussed in the context of the Hermean and terrestrial magnetosheaths.
