Constraints

Example(s)

  • SMS provides a convenient spatial reference frame for representing
    1. magnetopause and shock boundary positions
    2. magnetosheath and magnetotail fields
    3. magnetosheath solar wind velocities (since the orientation of the magnetic dipole axis alters the otherwise cylindrical symmetry of the solar wind flow).
