interplanetary medium

The interplanetary medium is responsible for several effects which can be seen from earth.

The interplanetary medium is home to at least two disc-like regions of cosmic dust.

The cause could be drag from the interplanetary medium, including dust, solar wind and cosmic rays.

The Pulse ionized the interplanetary medium around the planet." "

In particular, the magnetic "polar cap" where field lines are open to the interplanetary medium is much larger near the south pole.

How the interplanetary medium interacts with planets depends on whether they have magnetic fields or not.

The contraction would also apply to rockets which send probes to other worlds or the interplanetary medium.

"There is no record of any extensive survey being made of this system's interplanetary medium;" Kempster said.

This faint glow is thought to be caused by tiny particles in the interplanetary medium reflecting light back at the observer.

The temperature of the interplanetary medium varies.

The interplanetary medium thus fills the roughly spherical volume contained within the heliopause.

It is caused by sunlight scattering off dust particles in the interplanetary medium between the Earth and the Sun.

The measurements are used to investigate physical processes in the terrestrial magnetosphere and the interplanetary medium (solar wind).

The density gradually decreases until it smoothly transitions into the interplanetary medium approximately 5,000 km above the "surface".

The interstellar medium begins where the interplanetary medium of the Solar System ends.

Secondary objectives were to perform experiments in the interplanetary medium and to obtain experience with a dual-planet gravity assist mission.

Friction with the thick interplanetary medium had almost circularized its path, and worked together with resonances to make this ever shorter.

Geomagnetic storm - a temporary disturbance of the Earth's magnetosphere caused by a disturbance in the interplanetary medium.

WIND - The Wind spacecraft is devoted to the study of the interplanetary medium.

The vast majority of the volume of the Solar System consists of a near-vacuum known as the interplanetary medium.

We'll sweep through the kill zone and sift the interplanetary medium for an enhancement in trace elements, the kind we'd expect to find in this situation.

The boundary between the region dominated by the planet's magnetic field (i.e., the magnetosphere) and the plasma in the interplanetary medium is the magnetopause.

Ulysses - Sun - Two scientists participated in the investigations of heliospheric cosmic ray physics and properties of the interplanetary medium.

The shape of the current sheet results from the influence of the Sun's rotating magnetic field on the plasma in the interplanetary medium (Solar Wind).

RPWS is to measure the electric and magnetic wave fields in the interplanetary medium and planetary magnetospheres.
