Microinstabilities in the Transition Region of Weak Quasi-Perpendicular Intracluster Shocks
Sunjung Kim, Ji-Hoon Ha, Dongsu Ryu +1
Microinstabilities play important roles in both entropy generation and particle acceleration in collisionless shocks. Recent studies have suggested that in the transition zone of q…

Electron Firehose Instabilities in High- ICM shocks
Sunjung Kim, Ji-Hoon Ha, Dongsu Ryu +1
The preacceleration of electrons through reflection and shock drift acceleration (SDA) is essential for the diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) of nonthermal electrons in collisionl…
