Single-spacecraft observation. Example from 7 October 2015, showing a case when magnetosheath plasma was found in the −E hemisphere. (a) Logarithm of the differential energy flux of the ions in units of eV/(cm2s sr eV), (b) logarithm of the differential energy flux of the electrons in units of eV /(cm2s sr eV), (c) normalized integrated electron energy flux Fe, (d) magnetic flux density components, (e) normalized zMSE coordinate cos θ, (f) Fe (color-coded) at the positions of the observation in the yMSE − zMSE plane, and (g) Fe (color-coded) at the positions of the observation in the xMSE− zMSE plane. The magnetosheath is characterized by a higher electron flux Fe, as shown in panels c, f, and g. The −E hemisphere corresponds to cos θ < 0.
