Simultaneous TRACERS and THEMIS Observations of Reversed Cusp Ion Dispersions and Dual-Lobe Reconnection
M. Øieroset, S. A. Fuselier, J. B. Bonnell +20
We present observations from two consecutive TRACERS-2 orbits through the northern low-altitude cusp. During the first crossing, TRACERS-2 observed reversed cusp ion dispersion and…
Multi-point Assessment of the Kinematics of Shocks (MAKOS): A Heliophysics Mission Concept Study
Katherine A. Goodrich, Lynn B. Wilson, Steven Schwartz +6
Collisionless shocks are fundamental processes that are ubiquitous in space plasma physics throughout the Heliosphere and most astrophysical environments. Earth's bow shock and int…
The Persistent Mystery of Collisionless Shocks
Katherine Goodrich, Steven Schwartz, Lynn Wilson +14
Collisionless shock waves are one of the main forms of energy conversion in space plasmas. They can directly or indirectly drive other universal plasma processes such as magnetic r…
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…
Direct Multipoint Observations Capturing the Reformation of a Supercritical Fast Magnetosonic Shock
D. L. Turner, L. B. Wilson, K. A. Goodrich +12
Using multipoint Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations in an unusual string-of-pearls configuration, we examine in detail observations of the reformation of a fast magnetoso…
Parker Solar Probe evidence for scattering of electrons in the young solar wind by narrowband whistler-mode waves
C. Cattell, A. Breneman, J. Dombeck +14
Observations of plasma waves by the Fields Suite and of electrons by the Solar Wind Electrons Alphas and Protons Investigation (SWEAP) on Parker Solar Probe provide strong evidence…
Narrowband oblique whistler-mode waves: Comparing properties observed by Parker Solar Probe at <0.2 AU and STEREO at 1 AU
C. Cattell, B. Short, A. Breneman +15
AIM: Large amplitude narrowband obliquely propagating whistler-mode waves at frequencies of ~0.2 fce (electron cyclotron frequency) are commonly observed at 1 AU, and are most cons…
A Merged Search-Coil and Fluxgate Magnetometer Data Product for Parker Solar Probe FIELDS
Trevor A. Bowen, Stuart D. Bale, John W. Bonnell +12
NASA's Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission is currently investigating the local plasma environment of the inner-heliosphere (0.25) using both {\em{in-situ}} and remote se…
Switchbacks in the solar magnetic field: their evolution, their content, and their effects on the plasma, V2
F. S. Mozer1, O. V. Agapitov1, S. D. Bale1 +19
Switchbacks (rotations of the magnetic field) are observed on the Parker Solar Probe. Their evolution, content, and plasma effects are studied in this paper. The solar wind does no…
Time domain structures and dust in the solar vicinity: Parker Solar Probe observations
F. S. Mozer, O. V. Agapitov, S. D. Bale +9
On April 5, 2019, while the Parker Solar Probe was at its 35 solar radius perihelion, the data set collected at 293 samples/sec contained more than 10,000 examples of spiky electri…
The Near-Sun Dust Environment: Initial Observations from Parker Solar Probe
J. R. Szalay, P. Pokorný, S. D. Bale +11
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft has flown into the most dense and previously unexplored region of our solar system's zodiacal cloud. While PSP does not have a dedicated dus…
Plasma Waves near the Electron Cyclotron Frequency in the near-Sun Solar Wind
David M. Malaspina, Jasper Halekas, Laura Bercic +17
Data from the first two orbits of the Sun by Parker Solar Probe reveal that the solar wind sunward of 50 solar radii is replete with plasma waves and instabilities. One of the most…
