The Radial Distribution of Ion-scale Waves in the Inner Heliosphere

Wen Liu, Jinsong Zhao, Tieyan Wang +5

Determining the mechanism responsible for the plasma heating and particle acceleration is a fundamental problem in the study of the heliosphere. Due to efficient wave-particle inte…

Cosmic-Ray Convection-Diffusion Anisotropy

Yiran Zhang, Siming Liu, Dejin Wu

Under nonuniform convection, the distribution of diffusive particles can exhibit dipole and quadrupole anisotropy induced by the fluid inertial and shear force, respectively. These…

Electromagnetic Proton Beam Instabilities in the Inner Heliosphere: Energy Transfer Rate, Radial Distribution, and Effective Excitation

Wen Liu, Jinsong Zhao, Huasheng Xie +3

Differential flows among different ion species are often observed in the solar wind, and such ion differential flows can provide the free energy to drive Alfvén/ion-cyclotron and f…

Electron Temperature Anisotropy and Electron Beam Constraints From Electron Kinetic Instabilities in the Solar Wind

Heyu Sun, Jinsong Zhao, Wen Liu +2

Electron temperature anisotropies and electron beams are nonthermal features of the observed nonequilibrium electron velocity distributions in the solar wind. In collision-poor pla…

Observational evidence for solar wind proton heating by ion-scale turbulence

G. Q. Zhao, Y. Lin, X. Y. Wang +5

Based on in-situ measurements by Wind spacecraft from 2005 to 2015, this letter reports for the first time a clearly scale-dependent connection between proton temperatures and the…

Observations on a series of merging magnetic flux ropes within an interplanetary coronal mass ejection

Hengqiang Feng, Yan Zhao, Guoqing Zhao +2

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are intense solar explosive eruptions. CMEs are highly important players in solar-terrestrial relationships, and they have important consequences for…
