| Zusammenfassung |
| Although there is no intrinsic magnetic field at Venus, it possesses a well-defined magnetotail as part of the induced magnetosphere. Previous PVO measurements revealed the general features of this current sheet in the distant magnetotail region, mainly 8 to 12 Rv down the tail. In this study, we examine the Venus Express magnetometer data and perform a statistical study of the average structure of the near Venus magnetotail current sheet, 1 to 3 Rv down the tail. |
