MMS Insights into CME Driven Sub-Alfvénic Solar Wind at 1 AU

Harsha Gurram, Li-Jen Chen, Matthew R. Argall +4

We report the properties of electron distributions and turbulence during a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) in April 2023 observed by Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS). The CME exhibits a…

Compressive Structures in the Foreshock of Collisionless Shocks

Savvas Raptis, Domenico Trotta, Drew L. Turner +11

Collisionless shocks are fundamental accelerators of energetic particles; yet, the observations of nonlinear foreshock structures, which are essential in acceleration processes, di…

Multi-Mission Observations of Relativistic Electrons and High-Speed Jets Linked to Shock Generated Transients

Savvas Raptis, Martin Lindberg, Terry Z. Liu +19

Shock-generated transients, such as hot flow anomalies (HFAs), upstream of planetary bow shocks, play a critical role in electron acceleration. Using multi-mission data from NASA's…

Electrostatic Waves and Electron Holes in Simulations of Low-Mach Quasi-Perpendicular Shocks

Artem Bohdan, Aaron Tran, Lorenzo Sironi +1

Collisionless low Mach number shocks are abundant in astrophysical and space plasma environments, exhibiting complex wave activity and wave-particle interactions. In this paper, we…

The Persistent Mystery of Collisionless Shocks

Katherine Goodrich, Steven Schwartz, Lynn Wilson +14

Collisionless shock waves are one of the main forms of energy conversion in space plasmas. They can directly or indirectly drive other universal plasma processes such as magnetic r…

The Dynamics of a High Mach Number Quasi-Perpendicular Shock: MMS Observations

H. Madanian, M. I. Desai, S. J. Schwartz +12

Shock parameters at Earth's bow shock in rare instances can approach the Mach numbers predicted at supernova remnants. We present our analysis of a high Alfvén Mach number ($M_A= 2…
