Abstract Two types of convection were observed in the laboratory model of the magnetosphere: viscous convection and convection due to field lines common to both the magnetosphere and artificial solar wind. With a southward field component in the solar wind, convection from the Sun is observed in the polar cap, while with a large northward component, convection is directed toward the Sun. Merging of the field lines occurs in the cleft. With the southward component, a visor appears in front of the magnetosphere boundary. The decay of the visor into small magnetic structure is observed. The formation of an induced magnetosphere with a magnetic tail is shown in the experiments of the simulated conditions near non-magnetic bodies with a plasma shell (Venus, comets). A combined induced-intrinsic magnetosphere also was investigated.
