Magnetic reconnection-driven energization of protons up to 400 keV at the near-Sun heliospheric current sheet

M. I. Desai, J. F. Drake, T. Phan +22

We report observations of direct evidence of energetic protons being accelerated above ~400 keV within the reconnection exhaust of a heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing by NA…

Observations of Kappa Distributions in Solar Energetic Protons and Derived Thermodynamic Properties

M. E. Cuesta, A. T. Cummings, G. Livadiotis +13

In this paper we model the high-energy tail of observed solar energetic proton energy distributions with a kappa distribution function. We employ a technique for deriving the therm…

Kappa-tail technique: Modeling and application to Solar Energetic Particles observed by Parker Solar Probe

G. Livadiotis, A. T. Cummings, M. E. Cuesta +10

We develop the kappa-tail fitting technique, which analyzes observations of power-law tails of distributions and energy-flux spectra and connects them to theoretical modeling of ka…
