Energetic ions are at times observed in the upstream region of the Earth's bow shock, and their origin is considered to be in the interaction with the shock front. While the energy of the solar wind ions is a few keV at most, the energy of the back streaming ions ranges from ∼5 keV to several MeV. In the present study we investigate back streaming...
