Resonance of low-frequency electromagnetic and ion-sound modes in the solar wind

I. Y. Vasko, F. S. Mozer, T. Bowen +6

Parker Solar Probe measurements have recently shown that coherent fast magnetosonic and Alfvén ion-cyclotron waves are abundant in the solar wind and can be accompanied by higher-f…

Frequency Dispersed Ion Acoustic Waves in the Near Sun Solar Wind: Signatures of Impulsive Ion Beams

David M. Malaspina, Robert E. Ergun, Iver H. Cairns +4

This work reports a novel plasma wave observation in the near-Sun solar wind: frequency-dispersed ion acoustic waves. Similar waves were previously reported in association with int…

Proton and Alpha Driven Instabilities in an Ion Cyclotron Wave Event

Michael D. McManus, Kristopher G. Klein, Davin Larson +8

Ion scale wave events or "wave storms" in the solar wind are characterised by enhancements in magnetic field fluctuations as well as coherent magnetic field polarisation signatures…

Ion kinetics of plasma interchange reconnection in the lower solar corona

Vladimir Krasnoselskikh, Arnaud Zaslavsky, Anton Artemyev +6

The exploration of the inner heliosphere by Parker Solar Probe has revealed a highly structured solar wind with ubiquitous deflections from the Parker spiral, known as switchbacks.…

Local proton heating at magnetic discontinuities in Alfvenic and non-Alfvenic solar wind

C. A. Gonzalez, J. L. Verniero, R. Bandyopadhyay +1

We investigate the local proton energization at magnetic discontinuities/intermittent structures and the corresponding kinetic signatures in velocity phase space in Alfvénic and no…

Observations and Modeling of Unstable Proton and Alpha Particle Velocity Distributions in Sub-Alfvenic Solar Wind at PSP Perihelia

Leon Ofman, Scott A Boardsen, Lan K Jian +7

Past observations show that solar wind (SW) acceleration occurs inside the sub-Alfvenic region, reaching the local Alfven speed at typical distances ~ 10 - 20 Rs (solar radii). Rec…
