Slow electron holes in the Earth's magnetosheath

Z. I. Shaikh, I. Y. Vasko, I. H. Hutchinson +4

We present a statistical analysis of electrostatic solitary waves observed aboard Magnetospheric Multiscale spacecraft in the Earth's magnetosheath. Applying single-spacecraft inte…

Solar wind current sheets: MVA inaccuracy and recommended single-spacecraft methodology

Rachel Wang, Ivan Y. Vasko, Tai Phan +1

We present the analysis of 2,033 current sheets (CS) observed aboard four Cluster spacecraft in a pristine solar wind. Four-spacecraft estimates of the CS normal and propagation ve…

Double layers in the Earth's bow shock

Jiepu Sun, Ivan Y. Vasko, Stuart D. Bale +2

We present Magnetospheric Multiscale observations of electrostatic double layers in quasi-perpendicular Earth's bow shock. These double layers have predominantly parallel electric…

Electrostatic steepening of whistler waves

Ivan Y. Vasko, Oleksiy V. Agapitov, Forrest S. Mozer +4

We present surprising observations by the NASA Van Allen Probes spacecraft of whistler waves with substantial electric field power at harmonics of the whistler wave fundamental fre…
