Solar wind interaction with comet 67P: impacts of corotating interaction regions
Niklas J. T. Edberg, A. I. Eriksson, E. Odelstad +18
We present observations from the Rosetta Plasma Consortium of the effects of stormy solar wind on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Four corotating interaction regions (CIRs), where…

Ion velocity and electron temperature inside and around the diamagnetic cavity of comet 67P
Elias Odelstad, Anders I. Eriksson, Fredrik L. Johansson +7
A major point of interest in cometary plasma physics has been the diamagnetic cavity, an unmagnetized region in the inner-most part of the coma. Here, we combine Langmuir and Mutua…
