摘要: [1] Case and statistical studies have been performed to investigate hot flow anomalies (HFAs) with large deflections using data from the Cluster-C1 spacecraft 2003 2009. We selected 87 events Vy or Vz in GSE coordinates larger than 200 km s−1. Observations of these HFAs indicate a “location-dependent deflection”: deflect positive value when event is located Y Z side relative subsolar point negative it point. The amplitude deflection increases increasing distance direction. decrease Vx at center location closer Sun-Earth line. location-dependent might be due near-specular reflection ions Earth's bow shock. studied this paper are close shock ranging 0.03 3.51 RE, which cause reflected remain as coherent beam.
