McEntire Magnetic holes (MHs) in the solar wind are isolated depressions in the magnitude of the interplanetary magnetic field, which have attracted recent observational and theoretical attentions. On 25 September 2001, we observed an interaction event between an interplanetary shock (IPS) and a MH using the GEOTAIL data (plasma and energetic particles, magnetic and magnetic fields, and plasma waves) as well as those from the other spacecraft (SOHO, ACE, Genesis, and WIND). What we observed were, (1) within the MH the solar wind plasma density and temperature respectively showed a decrease and increase keeping the pressure balance condition with the dropping magnetic pressure, (2) the solar wind velocity showed a significant decrease in the region surrounding the MH, (3) the nonthermal ions were trapped within the MH structure, and (4) enhancement of magnetic turbulence in the MH.

  8. Apparent velocity of the MH: Minutes after 19:00UT on 25 Sept 2001 • Apparent velocity of the MH = Dr [Ace-Geotail] / Dt = 212.6Re / 28min ~ 807km/s • … this value is much faster than Vsw at Geotail. • Possibilities: • The estimation of Dt~28min is not correct (mis-identification of the MHs at Ace/Geotail)? • (2) Geometric effect: When considering the above two possibilities (1) and (2), we have implicitly assumed that the normal direction of the MH was close to the X axis. However, if this direction was oblique to the X axis, we should take into account of the geometric effect (Figure 7 in the next page).

  9. The normal vector of the magnetic hole surface is taken in the direction of (qMH,n, fMH,n). VMH,n = Vsw cos b1 Vapp =Vsw cos b1 / cos b2 =(-520, -130, 20) km/s … here we use the measured solar wind velocity at Geotail. Latitudinal angle Vapp =VMH,n / cos b2 Longitudinal angle ~800 km/s along the Ace-Geotail line Figure 7(a) Figure 7(b)

The magnetic hole was seen to be overtaken by the IPS. … A consistent picture between ACE and Geotail. However, the consistent picture seen between ACE and Geotail (left panel) is lost when we compare data from Wind and Geotail. Why?
