Plasma structures inside boundary layers of magnetic clouds

We analyze the plasma structures for 50 magnetic cloud boundary layers (BLs) which were observed by the spacecraft WIND from February, 1995 to June 2003. Main discoveries are: (ⅰ) The BL is a non-pressure balanced structure, its total pressure, PT,L, (the thermal pressure, Pth,L, plus the magnetic pressure, PM,L) is generally less than the total pressure PT,S and PT,C of the front solar wind (SW) and the following magnetic clouds (MC), respectively. The rising of the Pth,L inside the BLs is often not enough to compensate the declining of PM,L; (ⅱ) The ratio of electron and proton temperatures, (Te/Tp)L, inside the BLs is offen less than (Te/Tp)s and (Te/Tp)c in the SW and the MC, respectively, because the heating of proton is more obvious than that of electron; and (ⅲ) The reversal jet is observed in 80% BLs investigated, in which the reversal jets from all of three directions (±Vx, ±Vy, ±Vz), were observed in ≈25% BLs. These basic characteristics could be associated with a possible magnetic reconnection process inside the BLs. The results above suggest that the cloud BL owns the plasma structures different from those in the SW and MC. It is a manifestation for the existing significant dynamic interaction between the magnetic cloud and the solar wind.
