Transfer of Entropy between the Magnetic Field and Solar Energetic Particles during an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection
M. E. Cuesta, G. Livadiotis, D. J. McComas +4
Thermodynamics of solar wind bulk plasma have been routinely measured and quantified, unlike those of solar energetic particles (SEPs), whose thermodynamic properties have remained…
Generalized Two Thermal Regimes Approach : Bipoly Fluid Modeling
J-B. Dakeyo, P. Démoulin, A. P. Rouillard +3
The isopoly bi-fluid approach assumes an isothermal evolution of the solar wind near the Sun up to the radial distance riso, followed by a polytropic evolution constrained by the o…
Magnetic reconnection-driven energization of protons up to 400 keV at the near-Sun heliospheric current sheet
M. I. Desai, J. F. Drake, T. Phan +22
We report observations of direct evidence of energetic protons being accelerated above ~400 keV within the reconnection exhaust of a heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing by NA…
Observations of Kappa Distributions in Solar Energetic Protons and Derived Thermodynamic Properties
M. E. Cuesta, A. T. Cummings, G. Livadiotis +13
In this paper we model the high-energy tail of observed solar energetic proton energy distributions with a kappa distribution function. We employ a technique for deriving the therm…
Properties of an interplanetary shock observed at 0.07 and 0.7 Astronomical Units by Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter
D. Trotta, A. Larosa, G. Nicolaou +23
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Solar Orbiter (SolO) missions opened a new observational window in the inner heliosphere, which is finally accessible to direct measurements. On Se…
Development of a structured, turbulent solar wind as a result of interchange reconnection
J. F. Drake, S. D. Bale, M. Swisdak +2
The role of interchange reconnection as a drive mechanism for the solar wind is explored by solving the global magnetic-field-aligned equations describing wind acceleration. Bounda…
