On the apparent line-of-sight alignment of the peak X-ray intensity of the magnetosheath and the tangent to the magnetopause, as viewed by SMILE-SXI
The Soft X-ray Imager (SXI) on board the Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) spacecraft will be able to view the Earth’s magnetosheath in soft X-rays. Simulated images of the X-ray emission visible from the position of SMILE are created for a range of solar wind densities by us...
