Weibel-dominated quasi-perpendicular shock: hybrid simulations and in situ observations
J. A. Kropotina, A. A. Petrukovich, O. M. Chugunova +1
We directly compare hybrid kinetic simulations and in situ observations of a high Mach number high- shock in the Solar wind. We launch virtual probes to demonstrate that the mod…
Solar wind discontinuity transformation at the bow shock
Julia A. Kropotina, Lee Webster, Anton V. Artemyev +3
Solar wind plasma at the Earth's orbit carries transient magnetic field structures including discontinuities. Their interaction with the Earth's bow shock can significantly alter d…
Simulation of collisionless shocks in plasmas with high metallicity
J. A. Kropotina, K. P. Levenfish, A. M. Bykov
The results of hybrid simulation of low-beta supercritical quasi-parallel shocks in high metallicity plasma are presented. The structure of upstream and downstream turbulence is ad…
Maximus: a Hybrid Particle-in-Cell Code for Microscopic Modeling of Collisionless Plasmas
J. A. Kropotina, A. M. Bykov, A. M. Krassilchtchikov +1
A second-order accurate divergence-conserving hybrid particle-in-cell code Maximus has been developed for microscopic modeling of collisionless plasmas. The main specifics of the c…
The helical jet of the Vela Pulsar
Martin Durant, Oleg Kargaltsev, George G. Pavlov +2
We have studied the fascinating dynamics of the nearby Vela pulsar's nebula in a campaign comprising eleven 40ks observations with Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO). The deepest yet…
