abstract = "We present multi-point observations of foreshock transient events
and their impact on the Earths magnetosphere. The four
Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) spacecraft observed two
discontinuities in a quasi-perpendicular bow shock regime on 18
December 2017. A textbook example of a foreshock bubble (FB) was
observed in the region upstream of the first discontinuity. The FB
is identified by a greatly decelerated and deflected antisunward
flow, a significant increase in temperature, and depressed plasma
densities and magnetic field strengths in the core of the FB.
There is only one shock and it lies on the upstream side of the
discontinuity. No bubble attends the second solar wind
discontinuity. We will investigate the relationship between the
formation of the foreshock bubble and the IMF/solar wind
conditions and the local/global impacts of each discontinuity
with/without a foreshock bubble on Earths magnetosphere and
ionosphere. We note the presence of enhanced fluxes of energetic
particles (E > 50 keV) within both the FB event and the second
discontinuity and will address the sources and acceleration
mechanisms for these energetic particles.",
