Parker Solar Probe evidence for the absence of whistlers close to the Sun to scatter strahl and regulate heat flux

C. Cattell, A. Breneman, J. Dombeck +14

Using the Parker Solar Probe FIELDS bandpass filter data and SWEAP electron data from Encounters 1 through 9, we show statistical properties of narrowband whistlers from ~16 Rs to…

A solar source of Alfvénic magnetic field switchbacks: {\em in situ} remnants of magnetic funnels on supergranulation scales

S. D. Bale, T. S. Horbury, M. Velli +17

One of the striking observations from the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft is the prevalence in the inner heliosphere of large amplitude, Alfvénic magnetic field reversals terme…

A fast bow shock location predictor-estimator from 2D and 3D analytical models: Application to Mars and the MAVEN mission

C. Simon Wedlund, M. Volwerk, A. Beth +5

We present fast algorithms to automatically estimate the statistical position of the bow shock from spacecraft data, using existing analytical two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimens…

Characteristic scales of magnetic switchback patches near the Sun and their possible association with solar supergranulation and granulation

Naïs Fargette, Benoit Lavraud, Alexis Rouillard +16

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) data recorded within a heliocentric radial distance of 0.3 AU have revealed a magnetic field dominated by Alfvénic structures that undergo large local vari…

Ambipolar electric field and potential in the solar wind estimated from electron velocity distribution functions

Laura Bercic, Milan Maksimovic, Jasper S. Halekas +17

The solar wind escapes from the solar corona and is accelerated, over a short distance, to its terminal velocity. The energy balance associated with this acceleration remains poorl…

Making waves: Mirror Mode structures around Mars observed by the MAVEN spacecraft

Cyril Simon Wedlund, Martin Volwerk, Christian Mazelle +4

We present an in-depth analysis of a time interval when quasi-linear mirror mode structures were detected by magnetic field and plasma measurements as observed by the NASA/Mars Atm…
