Impact of Foreshock Transients on the Flank Magnetopause and Magnetosphere and the Ionosphere

Mesoscale (on the scales of a few minutes and a few RE) magnetosheath and magnetopause perturbations driven by foreshock transients have been observed in the flank magnetotail. In this paper, we present the 3D global hybrid simulation results to show qualitatively the 3D structure of the flank magne...
