Kinetic-scale current sheets in near-Sun solar wind: properties, scale-dependent features and reconnection onset

A. Lotekar, I. Y. Vasko, T. Phan +6

We present statistical analysis of 11,200 proton kinetic-scale current sheets (CS) observed by Parker Solar Probe during 10 days around the first perihelion. The CS thickness i…

Core Electron Heating By Triggered Ion Acoustic Waves In The Solar Wind

Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Cynthia Cattell +4

Perihelion passes on Parker Solar Probe orbits six through nine have been studied to show that solar wind core electrons emerged from 15 solar radii with a temperature of 55 plus o…

Core Electron Heating By Triggered And Ordinary Ion Acoustic Waves In The Solar Wind

F. S. Mozer, S. D. Bale, C. A. Cattell +4

Orbits six through nine of the Parker Solar Probe have been studied to show that solar wind core electrons emerged from 15 solar radii with temperatures that were constant to withi…

The Dayside Ionopause of Mars: Solar Wind Interaction, Pressure Balance, and Comparisons with Venus

F. Chu, Z. Girazian, F. Duru +5

Due to the lower ionospheric thermal pressure and existence of the crustal magnetism at Mars, the Martian ionopause is expected to behave differently from the ionopause at Venus. W…

Solar wind energy flux observations in the inner heliosphere: First results from Parker Solar Probe

M. Liu, K. Issautier, N. Meyer-Vernet +15

We investigate the solar wind energy flux in the inner heliosphere using 12-day observations around each perihelion of Encounter One (E01), Two (E02), Four (E04), and Five (E05) of…

Observations of Energized Electrons in the Martian Magnetosheath

K. Horaites, L. Andersson, S. J. Schwartz +5

This observational study demonstrates that the magnitude and location of energization of electrons in the Martian magnetosheath is more complex than previous studies suggest. Elect…

The magnetic structure of the subsolar MPB current layer from MAVEN observations: Implications for the Hall electric force

G. Boscoboinik, C. Bertucci, D. Gomez +7

We report on the local structure of the Martian subsolar Magnetic Pileup Boundary (MPB) from minimum variance analysis of the magnetic field measured by the Mars Atmosphere and Vol…

The Effects of Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure on the Structure of the Topside Ionosphere of Mars

Z. Girazian, J. Halekas, D. D. Morgan +3

We use Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN observations of the upstream solar wind, and Mars Express observations of ionospheric electron densities and magnetic fields, to study…

The effects of crustal magnetic fields and solar EUV flux on ionopause formation at Mars

F. Chu, Z. Girazian, D. A. Gurnett +5

We study the ionopause of Mars using a database of 6,893 ionopause detections obtained over 11 years by the MARSIS (Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding) expe…
