Structures of Interplanetary Magnetic Flux Ropes and Comparison with Their Solar Sources

Qiang Hu, Jiong Qiu, B. Dasgupta +2

Magnetic reconnection is essential to release the flux rope during its ejection. The question remains: how does the magnetic reconnection change the flux rope structure? Following…

An analytic model of plasma-neutral coupling in the heliosphere plasma

Dastgeer Shaikh, B Dasgupta

We have developed an analytic model to describe coupling of plasma and neutral fluids in the partially ionized heliosphere plasma medium. The sources employed in our analytic model…

Exclusion of Tiny Interstellar Dust Grains from the Heliosphere

J. D. Slavin, P. C. Frisch, J. Heerikhuisen +6

The distribution of interstellar dust grains (ISDG) observed in the Solar System depends on the nature of the interstellar medium-solar wind interaction. The charge of the grains c…

Self-Organization in a Driven Dissipative Plasma System

Dastgeer Shaikh, B. Dasgupta, Q. Hu +1

We perform a fully self-consistent 3-D numerical simulation for a compressible, dissipative magneto-plasma driven by large-scale perturbations, that contain a fairly broader spectr…

Minimum Dissipative Relaxed States Applied to Laboratory and Space Plasmas

Dastgeer Shaikh, B. Dasgupta, Q. Hu +1

The usual theory of plasma relaxation, based on the selective decay of magnetic energy over the (global) magnetic helicity, predicts a force-free state for a plasma. Such a force-f…

Solar arcades as possible minimum dissipative relaxed states

R. Bhattacharya, M. S. Janaki, B. Dasgupta +1

In our work, we have proposed the arcade structures as minimum dissipative relaxed states (including both the viscous and resistive channels) pertaining to a two-fluid description…
