On particle acceleration and trapping by Poynting flux dominated flows
Gunnar Paesold, Eric G. Blackman, Peter Messmer
Using particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, we study the evolution of a strongly magnetized plasma slab propagating into a finite density ambient medium. Like previous work, we find…
Acceleration and Enrichment of 3He in Impulsive Solar Flares by Electron Firehose Waves
G. Paesold, R. Kallenbach, A. O. Benz
A new mechanism for acceleration and enrichment of 3He during impulsive solar flares is presented. Low-frequency electromagnetic plasma waves excited by the Electron Firehose Insta…
Spatial analysis of solar type III events associated with narrow band spikes at metric wavelengths
G. Paesold, A. O. Benz, K. -L. Klein +1
The spatial association of narrow band metric radio spikes with type III bursts is analyzed. The analysis addresses the question of a possible causal relation between the spike emi…
Electron Firehose instability and acceleration of electrons in solar flares
Gunnar Paesold, Arnold O. Benz
An electron distribution with a temperature anisotropy T_par/T_perp > 1 can lead to the Electron Firehose instability (Here par and perp denote directions relative to the backgroun…
