Abstract: | ![]() The EGD plasma experiment, launched on board of the ISEE-2 spacecraft, is briefly described. Preliminary results concerning three bow shock crossings occurred in November 1977 are discussed. Our attention is focused on some non-thermal features of the distribution function of proton velocities: in particular, we discuss double peaked structures of solar wind spectra and flows of particles backstreaming from the bow shock. |
