Modelling of mirror mode structures as propagating slow magnetosonic solitons
Cluster measurements in the magnetosheath with spacecraft separations of 2000 km indicate that magnetic pulsations interpreted as mirror mode structures are not frozen in plasma flow, but do propagate with speeds of up to ~50 km/s. Properties of these pulsations are shown to be consistent with p...
