THEMIS Satellite Observations of Hot Flow Anomalies at Earth’s Bow Shock [STUB]

Abstract: Hot flow anomalies (HFAs) at Earth’s bow shock were identified in Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions During Substorms (THEMIS) satellite data from 2007 to 2009. The events were classified as young or mature and also as regular or spontaneous hot flow anomalies (SHFAs). The dataset has 17 young SHFAs, 49 mature SHFAs, 15 young HFAs, and 55 mature HFAs. They span a wide range of magnetic local times (MLTs) from approximately 7 to 16.5MLT. The largest ratio of solar wind to HFA c…
