The Electromagnetic Signature of Outward Propagating Ion-Scale Waves

Trevor A. Bowen, Stuart D. Bale, J. W. Bonnell +7

First results from the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission have revealed ubiquitous coherent ion-scale waves in the inner heliosphere, which are signatures of kinetic wave-particle in…

Cross-scale energy transfer from fluid-scale Alfvén waves to kinetic-scale ion acoustic waves in the Earth's magnetopause boundary layer

Xin An, Anton Artemyev, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3

In space plasmas, large-amplitude Alfvén waves can drive compressive perturbations, accelerate ion beams, and lead to plasma heating and the excitation of ion acoustic waves at ki…

Arguments for the physical nature of the triggered ion-acoustic waves observed on the Parker Solar Probe

Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Paul Kellogg +3

Triggered ion-acoustic waves are a pair of coupled waves observed in the previously unexplored plasma regime near the Sun. They may be capable of producing important effects on the…

Models of Collisionless Quasineutral Solar Wind Current Sheets

Sophie Boswell, Thomas Neukirch, Anton Artemyev +2

In situ measurements of kinetic scale current sheets in the solar wind show that they are often approximately force-free although the plasma beta is of order one. They frequently d…

Triggered Ion-acoustic Waves

Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Paul Kellogg +4

The Parker Solar Probe is in a solar orbit with a perihelion for orbit 12 at 13.3 solar radii. The electric field experiment on this satellite observes what we call triggered ion-a…

Core Electron Heating By Triggered Ion Acoustic Waves In The Solar Wind

Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Cynthia Cattell +4

Perihelion passes on Parker Solar Probe orbits six through nine have been studied to show that solar wind core electrons emerged from 15 solar radii with a temperature of 55 plus o…
