Description
This catalog has spacecraft-specific lists of interplanetary shocks measured by STEREO-a and STEREO-B between January 2007 and March 2009. For each of the 49 STEREO-A shocks and 46 STEREO-B shocks, the following information is given: time, the ratio of downstream to upstream magnetic field intensity, shock normal angle, plasma beta, magnetosonic Mach number, a Y/N flag, for STEREO 32 Hz magnetic field data availability, a comment field mainly used to indicate forward vs. reverse shocks. It is expected that this list, given in both PDF and Excel formats, will be updated periodically.
