Wind observations of the terrestrial bow shock: 3-D shape and motion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Between late 1994 and early 2001 the Wind orbiter, generally targeted to stay in the solar wind, passed through the Earth’s magnetosphere ∼50 times. About 450 distinct bow shock crossings were collected during the inbound and outbound bracketing each Wind perigee. These crossings and corresponding vectorial upstream solar wind measurements by the Wind MFI and SWE instruments are used to study the 3-D shape of the bow shock and its motion. Mapping of bow shock crossings to the Sun-Earth line and to the terminator plane is realized using a recent analytical model of the planetary bow shock. The asymmetry of the terrestrial bow shock in the terminator plane is studied as a function of Friedrichs diagram anisotropy. Analysis of the subsolar bow shock position as a function of Alfvenic Mach number M a during intervals of magnetic field aligned solar wind flow shows that the shock tends to approach the Earth when M a is decreasing, while for non field-aligned flows bow shock moves from the planet.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
