             abstract = "Mercury has a magnetosphere and as a consequence of the 
                         interaction with the supermagnetosonic solar wind, a bow shock is 
                         formed upstream of the planet. The shocked, heated, and 
                         decelerated solar wind particles populate the magnetosheath region 
                         between the planetary bow shock and magnetopause. Here we use 
                         theMariner-10 spacecraft highest resolution magnetic field data 
                         (25 vectors/s) during both M-I (29 March 1974) and M-III (16 March 
                         1975) Mercury encounters to study the magnetosheath fluctuations. 
                         Wavelet techniques are employed to identify the main 
                         scales/frequencies of magnetic field fluctuations and their 
                         evolution in time (non-stationarity). Wavelet spectra during 
                         magnetosheath crossings with quasi-perpendicular and 
                         quasi-parallel bow shocks are also comparatively analyzed. We have 
                         found that magnetic field fluctuations are strongly 
                         non-stationary, with frequencies around 5-10 s, 20-40 s and 2-5
