abstract = "We present multi-point observations of dayside transient events
and their impact on the Earths magnetosphere. The Magnetospheric
Multiscale (MMS) spacecraft observed a series of pulsed density
enhancements and a rapid transition from the magnetosphere to the
region upstream from the bow shock within just 2 min on 10
December 2016. Strong antisunward, and sometimes sunward, flows
are observed in conjunction with the pulses, which are bathed in
energetic particles that appear to have escaped from the outer
magnetosphere rather than energization of solar wind particles
within the foreshock. The selectively escaping ion species provide
information concerning distance from the magnetopause to the bow
shock. The transient magnetosheath density and (corresponding
dynamic pressure) enhancements may result from solar wind
discontinuities interacting with the bow shock and/or ripples
generated on the bow shock surface. Observed magnetospheric
responses to these transient phenomena include patchy, sporadic
magnetopause reconnection, magnetopause surface waves, transient
magnetic field variations in ground magnetograms and ionospheric
flow enhancements. We inspect the strikingly different
observations seen by multipoint solar wind monitors at different
locations and the transient response seen by high-latitude ground
magnetometers and radars.",
