説明
<jats:p>An interplanetary shock front (monitored by the ISEE 1/2 satellite pair) hit the earth's magnetosphere on October 17, 1978, around 0430 UT. The changes in magnetospheric plasma drift and magnetic field associated with this sudden impulse (SI) were measured by GEOS 2 in the equatorial plane near the dawn meridian. After the SI the plasma drift first increased (in an inward direction), followed by an exponential decay. The magnetic field changes were purely compressional with an amplitude increase which also exponentially decayed. These features can be explained by adiabatic (quasi‐static) compression of the magnetopause due to the increased solar wind pressure behind the shock front. In addition, both data sets exhibit also the excitation of a highly damped compressional hydromagnetic oscillation by the SI, thus hinting of a second, wavelike component in the compression of the magnetosphere.</jats:p>
