The Near-Sun Dust Environment: Initial Observations from Parker Solar Probe

J. R. Szalay, P. Pokorný, S. D. Bale +11

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft has flown into the most dense and previously unexplored region of our solar system's zodiacal cloud. While PSP does not have a dedicated dus…

Localized magnetic field structures and their boundaries in the near-Sun solar wind from Parker Solar Probe measurements

V. Krasnoselskikh, A. Larosa, O. Agapitov +18

One of the discoveries made by Parker Solar Probe during first encounters with the Sun is the ubiquitous presence of relatively small-scale structures standing out as sudden deflec…

Narrowband oblique whistler-mode waves: Comparing properties observed by Parker Solar Probe at <0.2 AU and STEREO at 1 AU

C. Cattell, B. Short, A. Breneman +15

AIM: Large amplitude narrowband obliquely propagating whistler-mode waves at frequencies of ~0.2 fce (electron cyclotron frequency) are commonly observed at 1 AU, and are most cons…

Magnetospheric Multiscale Dayside Reconnection Electron Diffusion Region Events

J. M. Webster, J. L. Burch, P. H. Reiff +21

We have used the high-resolution data of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission dayside phase to identify twenty-one previously unreported encounters with the electron diffusi…

Parker Solar Probe evidence for the absence of whistlers close to the Sun to scatter strahl and regulate heat flux

C. Cattell, A. Breneman, J. Dombeck +14

Using the Parker Solar Probe FIELDS bandpass filter data and SWEAP electron data from Encounters 1 through 9, we show statistical properties of narrowband whistlers from ~16 Rs to…

Parker Solar Probe evidence for scattering of electrons in the young solar wind by narrowband whistler-mode waves

C. Cattell, A. Breneman, J. Dombeck +14

Observations of plasma waves by the Fields Suite and of electrons by the Solar Wind Electrons Alphas and Protons Investigation (SWEAP) on Parker Solar Probe provide strong evidence…
