The current state and future directions of modeling thermosphere density enhancements during extreme magnetic storms

Denny M. Oliveira, Eftyhia Zesta, Piyush M. Mehta +4

Satellites, crewed spacecraft and stations in low-Earth orbit (LEO) are very sensitive to atmospheric drag. A satellite's lifetime and orbital tracking become increasingly inaccura…

Relativistic electron flux model in the outer radiation belt using a neural network approach

Xiangning Chu, Donglai Ma, Jacob Bortnik +10

We present a machine-learning-based model of relativistic electron fluxes >1.8 MeV using a neural network approach in the Earth's outer radiation belt. The Outer RadIation belt Ele…

Modeling the dynamic variability of sub-relativistic outer radiation belt electron fluxes using machine learning

Donglai Ma, Xiangning Chu, Jacob Bortnik +6

We present a set of neural network models that reproduce the dynamics of electron fluxes in the range of 50 keV 1 MeV in the outer radiation belt. The Outer Radiation belt E…

Local acceleration of protons to 100 keV in a quasi-parallel bow shock

Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson, Ian J. Cohen +2

Recent observations in the quasi-parallel bow shock by the MMS spacecraft show rapid heating and acceleration of ions up to an energy of about 100 keV. It is demonstrated that a pr…

A powerful machine learning technique to extract proton core, beam and alpha-particle parameters from velocity distribution functions in space plasmas

Daniel Vech, Michael L. Stevens, Kristoff W. Paulson +4

Context: The analysis of the thermal part of velocity distribution functions (VDF) is fundamentally important for understanding the kinetic physics that governs the evolution and d…

Direct Multipoint Observations Capturing the Reformation of a Supercritical Fast Magnetosonic Shock

D. L. Turner, L. B. Wilson, K. A. Goodrich +12

Using multipoint Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations in an unusual string-of-pearls configuration, we examine in detail observations of the reformation of a fast magnetoso…

Electrostatic solitary waves in the Earth's bow shock: nature, properties, lifetimes and origin

R. Wang, I. Y. Vasko, F. S. Mozer +4

We present a statistical analysis of more than two thousand bipolar electrostatic solitary waves (ESW) collected from ten quasi-perpendicular Earth's bow shock crossings by Magneto…

The Dayside Ionopause of Mars: Solar Wind Interaction, Pressure Balance, and Comparisons with Venus

F. Chu, Z. Girazian, F. Duru +5

Due to the lower ionospheric thermal pressure and existence of the crustal magnetism at Mars, the Martian ionopause is expected to behave differently from the ionopause at Venus. W…

Whistler wave occurrence and the interaction with strahl electrons during the first encounter of Parker Solar Probe

V. K. Jagarlamudi, T. Dudok de Wit, C. Froment +16

We studied the properties and occurrence of narrow band whistler waves and their interaction with strahl electrons observed between 0.17 and 0.26 au during the first encounter of P…

Dust storm-enhanced gravity wave activity in the Martian thermosphere observed by MAVEN and implication for atmospheric escape

Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Mehdi Benna +1

Lower atmospheric global dust storms affect the small- and large-scale weather and variability of the whole Martian atmosphere. Analysis of the CO density data from the Neutral…

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…
