The magnetosheath is the region of space between the Earth's magnetopause and the bow shock where solar wind slows down and becomes turbulent as it interacts with the Earth's magnetic field. This area plays a crucial role in protecting the Earth from solar wind particles and is significant in the study of induced magnetospheres, particularly in relation to comets and other celestial bodies that do not have their own intrinsic magnetic fields.
congrats on reading the definition of magnetosheath. now let's actually learn it.
