Stability of superthermal strahl electrons in the solar wind
Jack M. Schroeder, Stanislav Boldyrev, Patrick Astfalk
We present a kinetic stability analysis of the solar wind electron distribution function consisting of the Maxwellian core and the magnetic-field aligned strahl, a superthermal ele…
Linear Dispersion Theory of Parallel Electromagnetic Modes for Regularized Kappa-Distributions
Edin Husidic, Marian Lazar, Horst Fichtner +2
The velocity particle distributions measured in-situ in space plasmas deviate from Maxwellian (thermal) equilibrium, showing enhanced suprathermal tails which are well described by…
Stability Analysis of Core-Strahl Electron Distributions in the Solar Wind
Konstantinos Horaites, Patrick Astfalk, Stanislav Boldyrev +1
In this work, we analyze the kinetic stability of a solar wind electron distribution composed of core and strahl subpopulations. The core is modeled by a drifting Maxwellian distri…
