Averaging Effects on the Solar Wind Alfven Mach Number: Implications for Switchbacks and Alfven Transition

Joshua Goodwill, Subash Adhikari, Francesco Pecora +10

Averaging techniques in solar wind measurements have been a longstanding subject of debate. Using Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations from encounters 1 to 19, we investigate how…

Characterization of the Trans-Alfvénic Region Using Observations from Parker Solar Probe

Subash Adhikari, Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Joshua Goodwill +14

Close to Earth the solar wind is usually super-Alfvénic, i.e. the speed of the solar wind is much larger than the Alfvén speed. However, in the lower coronal regions, the solar win…

Flow Crossover and Parallel Outflow during Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection

Theerasarn Pianpanit, Kittipat Malakit, Pakkapawn Prapan +5

Using particle-in-cell simulations that label ions and electrons according to their initial inflow region, we find that during 2D collisionless magnetic reconnection, the bulk flow…

Laboratory measurements of energy partitioning and anomalous electron heating in magnetized, perpendicular collisionless shocks

V. Valenzuela-Villaseca, S. Totorica, J. Griff-McMahon +6

We present laboratory results on energy partitioning from supercritical, magnetized collisionless shock experiments (, ). We report the first ob…

Quasilinear Wave "Reflection" Due to Proton Heating by an Imbalanced Turbulent Cascade

Philip A. Isenberg, Bernard J. Vasquez, Benjamin D. G. Chandran +1

We investigate the quasilinear effects of the resonant wave-particle interaction under conditions of imbalanced turbulent heating in the collisionless coronal hole. We find that ve…

Observed Fluctuation Enhancement and Departure from WKB Theory in Sub-Alfvénic Solar Wind

David Ruffolo, Panisara Thepthong, Peera Pongkitiwanichakul +12

Using Parker Solar Probe data from orbits 8 through 17, we examine fluctuation amplitudes throughout the critical region where the solar wind flow speed approaches and then exceeds…
