This grant will continue support of a research program aimed               at the interaction of the solar wind and the magnetosphere.  This               interaction is important since it is the mechanism by which the                 magnetosphere is "pumped up' with magnetic energy.  This                        magnetosphere eventually unloads this energy in a multitude of                  ways including the aurora.  This grant has a nice combination of                theory, numerical simulations and data analysis addressing the                  following areas:                                                                     o    analytic theory of non-linear Alfven waves.                                o    spacecraft observations.                                                   o    numerical simulation of shock related MHD waves.                           o    quasi linear theory of beam instabilities                                                                                                                  Overall, this is a concerted program aimed at the                          elucidation of plasma processes occuring in the earth's bow                     shock.
