Solar Wind–Magnetosphere Coupling by the Kelvin–Helmholtz Instability at Mercury
The Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI) has been considered important in the energy transfer and momentum coupling between the solar wind and planetary magnetospheres. To explore this issue, we employ a two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulation to study the nonlinear evolution of the KHI at Merc...
