Measures of Scale Dependent Alfvénicity in the First PSP Solar Encounter
T. N. Parashar, M. L. Goldstein, B. A. Maruca +25
The solar wind shows periods of highly Alfvénic activity, where velocity fluctuations and magnetic fluctuations are aligned or anti-aligned with each other. It is generally agreed…

A Majority of Solar Wind Intervals Support Ion-Driven Instabilities
K. G. Klein, B. A. Alterman, M. L. Stevens +2
We perform a statistical assessment of solar wind stability at 1 AU against ion sources of free energy using Nyquist's instability criterion. In contrast to typically employed thre…
