The Wave-Regulated Precursor of a Near-Parallel Interplanetary Shock Observed by Parker Solar Probe
Immanuel Christopher Jebaraj, Lucas Colomban, Oleksiy Agapitov +7
Diffusive shock acceleration, at shocks from coronal mass ejections to supernova-remnant blast waves, presupposes a scattering wave field that the accelerated particles themselves…

The Nature of Turbulence at Sub-Electron Scales in the Solar Wind
Shiladittya Mondal, Christopher H. K. Chen, Davide Manzini
The nature of turbulence at sub-electron scales has remained an open question, central to understanding how electrons are heated in the solar wind. This is primarily because spacec…

Emergence of two inertial sub-ranges in solar wind turbulence: dependence on heliospheric distance and solar activity
Shiladittya Mondal, Supratik Banerjee, Luca Sorriso-Valvo
The solar wind is highly turbulent, and intermittency effects are observed for fluctuations within the inertial range. By analyzing magnetic field spectra and fourth-order moments,…
