Radial and angular evolution of magnetic cloud signatures in the turbulent solar wind: virtual spacecraft analysis
M. Sangalli, E. K. J. Kilpua, A. Verdini +3
Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) carry magnetic clouds (MCs), large-scale structures with average radial widths about a fifth of an astronomical unit at Earth's orbit.…
Scattering of Strahl Electrons in the Solar Wind between 0.3 and 1 au: Helios Observations
L. Bercic, M. Maksimovic, S. Landi +1
Electron velocity distribution functions in the solar wind according to standard models consist of 4 components, of which 3 are symmetric - the core, the halo, and the superhalo, a…
Proton temperature anisotropy and magnetic reconnection in the solar wind: effects of kinetic instabilities on current sheet stability
Lorenzo Matteini, Simone Landi, Marco Velli +1
We investigate the role of kinetic instabilities driven by a proton anisotropy on the onset of magnetic reconnection by means of 2-D hybrid simulations. The collisionless tearing o…
On the unconstrained expansion of a spherical plasma cloud turning collisionless : case of a cloud generated by a nanometer dust grain impact on an uncharged target in space
F Pantellini, Simone Landi, Arnaud Zaslavsky +1
Nano and micro meter sized dust particles travelling through the heliosphere at several hundreds of km/s have been repeatedly detected by interplanetary spacecraft. When such fast…
