“…The importance of the sheath and wake effects for in-situ measurements has been recognized early, and a number of studies were carried out to address this problem with increasingly more realistic models and simulations (Wang & Hastings, 1992;Scime et al, 1994;Torkar et al, 1998;Engwall et al, 2006;Svenes & Trøim, 1994;Garrett & Whittlesey, 2000;Anderson, 2012;Marchand et al, 2014;Miyake & Usui, 2016;Marchand & Lira, 2017;Capon et al, 2017). Due to the computational complexity, only recently, the effects of the magnetic field on the wake and spacecraft charging have been studied in self-consistent simulations (Marchand, 2012;Darian et al, 2017). In a magnetized plasma, which is found at LEO, the electron dynamics are controlled by the magnetic field, and thus, the wake can be modified as compared to the unmagnetized case, and also become asymmetric (Darian et al, 2017;Usui et al, 2019).…”
