Wave-Growth-Limited Particle Confinement in a Near-Parallel Interplanetary Shock Observed by Parker Solar Probe

A. Kouloumvakos, I. C. Jebaraj, M. A. Malkov +11

Collisionless shocks confine the particles they accelerate with the upstream wave field they themselves drive. Streaming particles resonantly amplify Alfvén waves, and the waves th…

Does Diffusive Shock Acceleration Reach Steady State? Insights from a Near-Sun Shock Observed by Parker Solar Probe

Immanuel Christopher Jebaraj, Mikhail Malkov, Nicolas Wijsen +7

Collisionless shocks accelerate particles at a rate set by the diffusion coefficient of those particles in waves they themselves generate. Theory fixes that coefficient only in ste…

The Wave-Regulated Precursor of a Near-Parallel Interplanetary Shock Observed by Parker Solar Probe

Immanuel Christopher Jebaraj, Lucas Colomban, Oleksiy Agapitov +7

Diffusive shock acceleration, at shocks from coronal mass ejections to supernova-remnant blast waves, presupposes a scattering wave field that the accelerated particles themselves…

Evolution and Impact of Switchbacks Throughout the Heliosphere

Alfred Mallet, Chen Shi, Anna Tenerani +23

Magnetic switchbacks are large-amplitude fluctuations in the interplanetary magnetic field, and appear frequently in the near-Sun solar wind explored recently by Parker Solar Probe…

Wave Activity at MHD-ion Scales Associated with Switchbacks

Kyung-Eun Choi, Oleksiy V. Agapitov, Forrest Mozer +9

Magnetic switchbacks (SB) -- the localized magnetic structures with magnetic field direction inclined at an angle relative to the background -- in the young solar wind ha…

On flying near the base of a pseudo-streamer

Forrest Mozer, Oleksiy Agapitov, Kyungeun Choi +1

Near the 10 solar radius perihelion of Parker Solar Probe encounter 24, a confined region containing an enhanced plasma density (25,000 per cubic centimeter) and broadband electros…

Properties of Magnetic Switchbacks in the Near-Sun Solar Wind

Samuel T. Badman, Naïs Fargette, Lorenzo Matteini +24

Magnetic switchbacks are fluctuations in the solar wind in which the interplanetary magnetic field sharply deflects away from its background direction so as to create folds in magn…

VLF Remote Sensing across and along the Totality Path during the April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse using a VLF Receiver Network

Oleksiy Agapitov, Mark Gołkowski, Lucas Colomban +6

During the total solar eclipse in the United States on April 8, 2024, we observed the amplitude and phase of VLF signals from five U.S. Navy VLF transmitters using a novel geometry…

Switchbacks near Boundaries of Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Young Solar Wind from Parker Solar Probe Observations

Kyung-Eun Choi, Oleksiy V. Agapitov, Dae-Young Lee +5

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission has revealed frequent occurrences of switchbacks (SBs) and small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs) as prominent structures within the solar win…

Direct evidence for magnetic reconnection at the boundaries of magnetic switchbacks with Parker Solar Probe

C. Froment, V. Krasnoselskikh, T. Dudok de Wit +20

Parker Solar Probe's first encounters with the Sun revealed the presence of ubiquitous localised magnetic deflections in the inner heliosphere; these structures, often called switc…

Dynamics of the CO+ coma of comet 29P/Schwasmann-Wachmann 1

O. Ivanova, O. Agapitov, D. Odstrcil +3

Comet-centaur 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 was observed in CO+ emission and contin-uum during 2007-2009 using the 6-m Big Telescope Alt-azimuth at the Special Astrophysical Observato…

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…
