Short summary

We employ multipoint observations of the Van Allen Probes, THEMIS, GOES and Cluster to present case and statistical studies of the electromagnetic field, plasma and particle response to interplanetary (IP) shocks observed by Wind. We perform a statistical study of E_y variations of the electric field and associated plasma drift flow velocities for 60 magnetospheric events during the passage of interplanetary shocks.
