The Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) is an ESA-CASjoint mission. Primary goals are investigating the dynamic response of theEarth's magnetosphere to the solar wind (SW) impact via simultaneous in situmagnetosheath (MS) plasma and magnetic field measurements, X-Ray images of themagnetosheath and magnetic cusps, and UV images of global auroraldistributions. Magnetopause (MP) deformations associated with MS high speedjets (HSJs) under a quasi-parallel interplanetary magnetic field condition arestudied using a three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation. Soft X-rayintensity calculated based on both physical quantities of solar wind proton andoxygen ions is compared. We obtain key findings concerning deformations at theMP: (1) MP deformations are highly coherent with the MS HSJs generated at thequasiparallel region of the bow shock, (2) X-ray intensities estimated usingsolar wind H+ and self-consistent O7+ ions are consistent with each other, (3)Visual spacecraft are employed to check the discrimination ability forcapturing MP deformations on Lunar and polar orbits, respectively. The SMILEspacecraft on the polar orbit could be expected to provide opportunities forcapturing the global geometry of the magnetopause in the equatorial plane. Astriking point is that SMILE has the potential to capture small-scale MPdeformations and MS transients, such as HSJs, at medium altitudes on its orbit.
