On the Energy Dependence of Galactic Cosmic Ray Anisotropies in the Very Local Interstellar Medium

Romina Nikoukar, Matthew E. Hill, Lawrence Brown +11

We report on the energy dependence of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) in the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) as measured by the Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) instrument on…

Technologies for supporting high-order geodesic mesh frameworks for computational astrophysics and space sciences

V. Florinski, D. S. Balsara, S. Garain +1

Many important problems in astrophysics, space physics, and geophysics involve flows of (possibly ionized) gases in the vicinity of a spherical object, such as a star or planet. Th…

Efficient, Divergence-Free, High Order MHD on 3D Spherical Meshes with Optimal Geodesic Meshing

Dinshaw S. Balsara, Vladimir Florinski, Sudip Garain +2

There is a great need in several areas of astrophysics and space-physics to carry out high order of accuracy, divergence-free MHD simulations on spherical meshes. This requires us…

Entering the "magnetic highway": energetic particle anisotropies at the heliospheric boundary

Vladimir Florinski

In August of 2012 the Voyager 1 space probe entered a distinctly new region of space characterized by a virtual absence of heliospheric energetic charged particles and magnetic flu…

Comparing various multi-component global heliosphere models

H. -R. Müller, V. Florinski, J. Heerikhuisen +4

Modeling of the global heliosphere seeks to investigate the interaction of the solar wind with the partially ionized local interstellar medium. Models that treat neutral hydrogen s…

The effects of a kappa-distribution in the heliosheath on the global heliosphere and ENA flux at 1 AU

J. Heerikhuisen, N. V. Pogorelov, V. Florinski +2

We investigate heliosheath energetic neutral atom (ENA) fluxes at keV energies, by assuming that the heliosheath proton distribution can be approximated by a kappa-distribution. Th…
