Using a Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Model to Simulate the Magnetospheric Response to a Kinetic Foreshock Transient

Abstract A global magnetohydrodynamic model predicts the response of the magnetosphere to the passage of a foreshock transient. We simulate the transient as an antisunward‐ and dawnward‐moving slab of hot tenuous solar wind plasma and weak magnetic field strengths on magnetic field lines connected t...
