Magnetic Discontinuities in the Solar Wind and Magnetosheath: Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission (MMS) Observations

We perform a statistical investigation of the geometric features of interplanetary discontinuities (IDs) in the near-Earth solar wind and magnetosheath, by utilizing 14 months of Magnetospheric Multiscale mission data. 117,669 IDs are collected, including 108,049 events in the solar wind and 6399 ev...
