The investigation which we shall briefly describe is an attempt to shed light on the structure of the earth’s bow shock wave. Unlike gas dynamic shocks col-lisionless plasma shocks can dissipate directed flow energy in a number of different ways. In some of the models the shock structure is governed by plasma-magnetic field interaction (Kennel and Sagdeev, 1967a and b); in other cases the interaction is assumed to be predominantly electrostatic (Tidman, 1967; Tidman and Krall, 1971). In the bow shock the experimental evidence (Fredricks et al., 1970; see also Bertotti and Schindler 1971 for a review) points to the presence of both magnetic and electrostatic fluctuations and no unambiguous picture exists, even on a qualitative basis, for the dissipation processes.
