Abstract

We analyze high-resolution observations of the magnetic field strength, B, and plasma density, N, measured by V 2 in the post-termination shock (TS) and unipolar regions of the heliosheath. We examine correlations between these parameters on 2-hour subintervals.

Finally, we compare these correlation coefficients with the results of a similar analysis in the Earth’s magnetosheath based on 20-minute intervals from Cluster.
