MMS Observations of the Velocity-Space Signature of Shock-Drift Acceleration
Peter Montag, Gregory Howes, Daniel McGinnis +3
Collisionless shocks play a key role in the heliosphere at planetary bow shocks by governing the conversion of the upstream bulk kinetic energy of the solar wind flow to other form…
Dependence of Solar Wind Proton Temperature on the Polarisation Properties of Alfvénic Fluctuations at Ion-kinetic Scales
L. D. Woodham, R. T. Wicks, D. Verscharen +2
We use fluctuating magnetic helicity to investigate the polarisation properties of Alfvénic fluctuations at ion-kinetic scales in the solar wind as a function of , the ratio o…
Plasma Waves near the Electron Cyclotron Frequency in the near-Sun Solar Wind
David M. Malaspina, Jasper Halekas, Laura Bercic +17
Data from the first two orbits of the Sun by Parker Solar Probe reveal that the solar wind sunward of 50 solar radii is replete with plasma waves and instabilities. One of the most…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] Disentangling the Spatiotemporal Structure of Turbulence Using Multi-Spacecraft Data
J. M. TenBarge, O. Alexandrova, S. Boldyrev +26
This white paper submitted for 2020 Decadal Assessment of Plasma Science concerns the importance of multi-spacecraft missions to address fundamental questions concerning plasma tur…
Evidence for Electron Landau Damping in Space Plasma Turbulence
C. H. K. Chen, K. G. Klein, G. G. Howes
How turbulent energy is dissipated in weakly collisional space and astrophysical plasmas is a major open question. Here, we present the application of a field-particle correlation…
Laboratory Space Physics: Investigating the Physics of Space Plasmas in the Laboratory
Gregory G. Howes
Laboratory experiments provide a valuable complement to explore the fundamental physics of space plasmas without the limitations inherent to spacecraft measurements. Specifically,…
