Seemingly contrary to this, the plasma surrounding the Earth has two primary sources: the upper atmosphere, where electrons typically have energies of less than one electron volt, and the solar wind, ...

LEXI, an X-ray imager, includes nine lobster-eye micropore optical elements and is designed to monitor the interaction of solar wind with Earth's magnetosphere. It will capture low-energy X-rays ...

In his book The Mathematical Universe, mathematician William Dunham wrote of John Venn’s namesake legacy, the Venn diagram, “No one in the long history of mathematics ever became better known ...

Consequently, the Earth's magnetosphere was strongly compressed, resulting in a powerful magnetic reconnection between the interplanetary magnetic field heading south and the Earth's magnetic field.
