| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The ion entry into the wake behind an obstacle in the solar wind was studied using two-dimensional, electromagnetic full-particle simulations. The Electric field produced by the negative electric charge on the nightside surface of the obstacle accelerates ions toward the void, over longer Debye length than in the solar wind due to the reduced electron density. The ions can access the deepest wake behind a large-scale obstacle being accelerated over a long distance.
Kaguya detected low-frequency magnetic field fluctuations generated by the modified velocity distribution of the solar wind particles reflected or absorbed by the moon. The reflected protons are responsible for the generation of ULF and monochromatic ELF waves through interaction with magnetohydrodynamic and whistler waves in the solar wind. Beams of electrons reflected above the dayside lunar magnetic anomaly, or sucked into the proton rich region in the central wake are the source of broadband ELF waves.
