Abstract

Electric currents induced within the bow shock front by fluctuations of the magnetic field are used to measure the anomalous resistivity. It is shown that a simple relationship between the amplitude of the magnetic field changes, the voltage gradients induced within the shock front and the electrical resistivity exists. It is also possible to determine the thickness of the resistive shocked plasma layer from the period of the magnetic field fluctuations measured within the shock front and from the electrical resistivity.
