Observation of a new type of low-frequency waves at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

We report on magnetic field measurements made in the innermost coma of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in its low-activity state. Quasi-coherent, large-amplitude (&delta; <i>B</i>/<i>B</i> ~ 1), compressional magnetic field oscillations at ~ 40 mHz dominate the immediate pla...
