-the magneto-sheath is the region of space between the ‘magnetopause’ and the ‘bow shock’ of a planet’s [magneto-sphere]-
.
(the regularly organized ‘magnetic field’ generated by the planet becomes ‘weak’ and ‘irregular’ in the ‘magnetosheath’ due to interaction with the incoming ‘solar wind’, and is incapable of fully deflecting the highly charged particles)
(the density of the ‘particles’ in this region is considerably lower than what is found beyond the ‘bow shock’, but greater than within the ‘magnetopause’, and can be considered a ‘transitory state’)
(scientific research into the exact nature of the ‘magnetosheath’ has been limited due to a longstanding misconception that it was a simple byproduct of the ‘bow shock’ / ‘magnetopause’ interaction and had no inherently important properties of its own)
(recent studies indicate, however, that the ‘magnetosheath’ is a dynamic region of ‘turbulent plasma flow’ that may play an important role in the structure of the ‘bow shock’ and the ‘magnetopause’, and may help to dictate the flow of ‘energetic particles’ across those boundaries)
(the earth’s ‘magnetosheath’ typically occupies the region of space approximately 10 ‘earth radii’ on the ‘upwind’ (aka ‘sun-facing’) side of the ‘planet’, extending significantly farther out on the ‘downwind side’ due to the pressure of the ‘solar wind’)
.
(the exact location and width of the ‘magnetosheath’ does depend on variables such as ‘solar activity’)
