The Effect of Expansion and Instabilities in the Thermodynamic Regulation of the Young Solar Wind Plasma

Matilde Coello-Guzmán, Víctor A. Pinto, Roberto E. Navarro +1

Using Parker Solar Probe measurements of the solar wind, we demonstrate that is the main driver that determines which instabilities limit proton temperature anisotr…

Proton-Acoustic Wave Effects on the Relaxation of Proton Transverse Heating in Magnetized Plasmas

Martín A. Quijada, Pablo S. Moya, Roberto E. Navarro

Transverse electromagnetic and electrostatic plasma wave modes propagating along a background magnetic field are independent according to linear kinetic theory. However…

First Principle Description of Plasma Expansion Using the Expanding Box Model

Sebastian Echeverría-Veas, Pablo S. Moya, Marian Lazar +2

Multi-scale modeling of expanding plasmas is crucial for understanding the dynamics and evolution of various astrophysical plasma systems such as the solar and stellar winds. In th…

Interplay Between Anisotropy- and Skewness-driven Whistler Instabilities in the Solar Wind under the Core-Strahlo model

Bea Zenteno-Quinteros, Pablo S Moya, Marian Lazar +2

Temperature anisotropy and field-aligned skewness are commonly observed non-thermal features in electron velocity distributions in the solar wind. These characteristics can act as…

Understanding the level of Turbulence by Asymmetric Distributions: a motivation for measurements in Space Plasmas

Iván Gallo-Méndez, Pablo S. Moya

In this article, on the basis of the Langevin equation applied to velocity fluctuations, we numerically model the Partial Variance of Increments, which is a useful tool to measure…

The aperiodic firehose instability of counter-beaming electrons in space plasmas

M. Lazar, R. A. López, P. S. Moya +2

Recent studies have revealed new unstable regimes of the counter-beaming electrons specific to hot and dilute plasmas from astrophysical scenarios. The (counter-)beaming electron f…
