This thesis focuses on the very high Mach number shock wave that is
located sunward of Saturn's strong magnetic field in the continuous
high-speed flow of charged particles from the Sun (the solar wind).
The author exploits the fact that the Cassini spacecraft is the
only orbiter in a unique parameter regime, far different from the
more familiar near-Earth space, to provide in-situ insights into
the unreachable exotic regime of supernova remnants. This thesis
bridges the gap between shock physics in the Solar System and the
physics of ultra-high Mach number shocks around the remnants of
supernova explosions, since to date research into the latter has
been restricted to theory, remote observations, and simulations.
