In this thesis, the lunar wake is investigated with a hybrid-kinetic model to simulate the dynamics of the ions as particles as well as in the fluid approximations. Two-fluid models of the entire wake whether interacting (the method of characteristics) or not (the analytic model) are developed...

An approximate model derived by Hutchinson (2008a), describing the interaction between the solar wind and the Moon, is applied to describe plasma in the lunar wake. The model accounts for plasma entering the wake region from two tangent points around the Moon. Cylindrical geometry is assumed,...
